How It Happened

  • The Continentals took a 2-1 lead with 15:59 remaining in the second half thanks to a goal by Rayhill, assisted by Olivia Zubarik '25.

The Continentals maintained control as Lauren Hanna '25 advanced it up the far side. Zubarik launched a pass toward the top of the 18-yard box intended for Maddie Ledbury '26. The ball was deflected, allowing Harvey to outrun her defender and the charging Bowdoin keeper as she slid the equalizer into the back of the net.
