The defense including Erika Landis (Watsontown, Pa./Warrior Run), Makayla Dickey (Lock Haven, Pa./Central Mountain) and Carly Spinuzza (Williamstown, N.J.) stood tall throughout and held Bloomsburg in check for most of the game.
 
With the score knotted 0-0 in the 68^th minute, Dickey had a big stop as she was the last defender near midfield, and knocked the ball away from the Husky attacker. Shortly after Hilty added to the defensive highlights with a point-blank save.  
 
Jordan Shoff (York, Pa./Suburban) did all she could to power the offense, leading the team with three shots.
 
Bloomsburg finally cracked The Haven's defense in the 71^st minute when Megan Callan scored after a cross into the box.
