We were hosting Sewanee, who we had beaten by a large margin for the conference championship in 2009. We knew it would be a tough match and we were prepared to have to battle and earn a result. Our predictions were true. It would take us an hour to finally break them down for a quality goal-scoring opportunity after having surrendered only a couple to them through that point. Jordan threaded a fantastic ball for Kelly who was able to bury it for a 1-0 lead. Jordan yet again would find Abby shortly thereafter to stretch the margin to 2. The match would end there and we would garner 3 important conference points to stay at the top of the league table. Sunday would come quickly and would mark perhaps the final time in 2010 that we would play a home match.
