"Lindenwood is a gritty team that knows how to win, and they kept us battling until the last whistle blew."

The Aztecs were led by Deanna Balsama and Emma Betts. Balsama led the team with five goals on the night while Emma Betts added three. Caitlin Jones contributed another two while Mia Kohn, Sydney Wolfington, Cailin Young, Kate Christos, and Brook Waddell added one each.
