Riverview’s shooting percentage was limited to 36% in the first half. In the second half, the Rams’ offense came alive.

The lead would change hands a couple more times, and with just 25 seconds remaining in regulation, Riverview junior, Susan Lowther was able to tie the game, but it was short-lived, because with just 1 second remaining on the clock, Jensen Beach junior, Julia Kerr would slip a shot past Riverview goalie Mia Rey for the game winner, her fifth goal of the game.
