Roughly two minutes into second-half action, Eagles’ sophomore Zuma Thoms struck a long ball that was controlled by West freshman Emery Bryan and passed along to junior Leah Stiassny, who beat the keeper left.

We put our best foot forward and we put a lot of effort in, and I think we just need to keep playing and see what the outcome becomes.”

We just have to put in all our effort and all of our work basically.”
