  • Winthrop finally broke through in the 55th minute as Mosquera got another chance as she scored her first collegiate goal
  • Saide Guest headed a pass behind the Mountaineer defense as Mosquera ran on to the ball inside the box and calmly buried a shot into the lower right corner to draw level
  • Mountaineers regained the lead 2-1 in the 66th minute when Breckyn Monteith settled a deflected ball and placed a shot into the lower right corner
  • Over the final 25 minutes of regulation the Eagles pushed to tie the game and in the 90th minute it paid off
  • Winthrop earned a free kick about 25 yards out to the left of the goalkeeper and halfway between the 18-yard box and sideline
