How It Happened

• St. Mary's contained the nation's sixth-best offense to just one goal on eight shots and five penalty corners in the first half.
• Salisbury's lone goal came early in the first half off the stick of senior midfielder Hannah Miller (Severna Park, Md./Severna Park) as Miller ripped a shot into the lower left center of the cage on a right diagonal at 8:11.
• The Sea Gulls continued to push through in the second stanza and tacked on three more scores.
• First-year Rachel Domanico (North Granby, Conn./Granby Memorial) picked up her first of the day at 47:17 as Domanico put back the rebound from junior Alyssa Thompson's (Arnold, Md./Broadneck) initial save.
• Domanico then assisted on SU's third of the day at 53:20, inserting the ball up to senior defender Annah Brittingham (Pocomoke City, Md./Pocomoke) who fired a shot just inside the near post.
• Brittingham and Domanico switched places for the final tally of the day at 68:44 when Domanico deflected Brittingham's shot at the far post.
