For the game, UMBC outshot Oregon 39-25.
Ali Levendusky put UMBC ahead for good at 2-1 at the 5:38 mark of the first half. UMBC built a 4-1 lead, but the Ducks would not go away as Bradley scored two goals about one minute apart and Kate Fleming cut UMBC's lead to 9-7 ? the score at the half ? with a goal on a pass from Lindsay Pittard with two minutes left.
Kate Worthington (four goals), who scored UMBCs ninth goal with 3:31 remaining in the first half, scored UMBCs first three goals of the second half, each time giving the Retrievers a three-goal cushion.
