WILMINGTON, De. --- Despite a one goal difference at the half, the Marauders were outscored 11-2 in the second half which dropped their record to 0-1 on the young season. While its a loss on the score sheet, the Marauders will look to learn and build off it moving forward.

The first half was as close as it could've been, with the score being 5-4 going into the break. Goalie KC O'Neill had five first half saves, with four of them coming in the second quarter where she faced seven shots. Goals came courtesy of Avery Weaber, Brianna Gora, Kayleigh Dunn, Addison Geary, and Jodylynn Cadden, both who scored their first collegiate goals.

Things really opened up in the second half when Wilmington went on a tear and the Marauders just weren't able to keep up. Wilmington out shot the Marauders 14-9, but almost all of their shots found the back of the net, with 11 of their 16 goals coming in the second half of action. Two second half yellow cards for the Marauders also did not contribute positively to a potential comeback.
