Second Half Goal Lifts FDU Over Marywood, 2-1

Madison, N.J. - A goal in the 72nd propelled host FDU Florham to a 2-1 win over Marywood University Saturday in non-conference soccer action. Meaghan Mulvey scored for the Pacers in the loss.

The Devils (5-2) took the lead in the 30th minute of action when they scored on a corner kick. Mulvey tied the game for the Pacers in the 43rd minute, finishing off a cross from Gillian Way to level the game.

A back-and-forth second half saw both teams with multiple chances, but Marywood's Rebekah Becker made several nice saves to keep the hosts at bay and her counterpart did the same against the Pacers (2-3).

In the 72nd minute, Tatiana Nieto ended the deadlock when she slipped through the Pacers' defense and beat Becker for the game-winner.

Marywood had a couple more chances to tie, including a corner kick in the 86th minute, but the Devils' defense held tough to preserve the win.

Becker made six stops for Marywood.

The Pacers return to action Wednesday when they travel back to New Jersey to take on Kean University. Kickoff is set for 7:30pm.
