After a solid defensive effort and 78 minutes of scoreless soccer, it was an own goal that did the Griffins in as a play back to the goalkeeper ended in catastrophe (1-0 at 78:51).

Felician University (5-9-1, 4-7) outshot Chestnut Hill College (3-12, 3-9) by a 6-3 margin in a competitive first half. The Griffins were the aggressor early, testing freshman goalkeeper Jamie Kazenmayer (Forked River, N.J.) with O'Toole, who put the first two Scarlet and Gold shots on goal (1:48, 16:19). The Golden Falcons pushed back, but nothing came of it as play moved to the second half.
