Lauren Laux tucked in a loose ball to place another one in for the Sea Devils in the first half, followed by another clutch goal from McDonald. Kailie RossLillian Schmitt, and Johanna Morales (all newcomers for the Sea Devils this season) each tacked on an additional goal to finish out the match with a strong lead. Alissa Campano also played an integral role in the Sea Devils' success on attacking runs throughout the game.

"Very pleased with how every player got significant playing time, and we ended the regular season undefeated," says Head Coach C.W. Ponton. "I'm proud of the team and what we have done throughout the regular season."

The Sea Devils will host Richard Bland again at North Campus Soccer Field for the first round of Region 10 Tournament play on Thursday, October 19th at 1:30 PM.
