St. Francis (4-2-1) scored twice within the first 15 minutes with the first goal coming on a fluke shot from Sara Thieme after receiving a pass from Kendra Reimer. Mary Whisler received the next scoring opportunity off a penalty shot placing it in the right side of the net.

Judson's Christina Thornton (Algonquin, IL) cut the lead to one, 2-1, in the 31^st minute when Betsy Barthel (Des Plaines, IL) found Thornton on a bounce pass. The one-goal lead only lasted four minutes as St. Francis netted their third goal of the match off a lucky deflection from Angie Carusone shot that deflected across the box and Jenna Mahon was able to get a foot on it in order to put it in the goal.

Judson made a push in the second half by taking five shots and cutting the lead to one, 3-2. Lynsey McFarland (Scotland) brought the score to within one when she sailed a free kick from 20-yards out into the left side of the net to score Judson's second goal in the 59^th minute.

Judson will take to the road on Friday and Saturday, September 12^th and 13^th, as they will play in the Mt. Vernon Nazarene Tournament in Ohio. Judson will face Spring Arbor on Friday at 1:00 p.m. and then play Mt. Vernon on Saturday at 3:00 p.m.
