Late in the first half, Rutgers (0-5) had two close-range opportunities both stopped by UD keeper Noelle Diana. Senior Brittany Bybel (Millville, N.J.) had her attempt in the 33rd minute kicked aside and deflected shot off the stick of Kat Rodziewicz (Ocean, N.J.) was also stopped to keep the Scarlet Knights off the board.
Fifteen minutes into the second half, UD pushed ahead 2-0 when Amanda McCardell corralled a bouncing ball five yards outside the mouth of the goal.
