WASHINGTON, D.C. - Behind a Breanna Harkins goal and a clean sheet from the Saints' defense, Marymount women's soccer earned a strong win in their final regular season home match by a final margin of 1-0. 

The win puts the Saints at a 5-7-4 overall record, still 1-2-1 after the non-conference match.

Notable

• Harkins was the difference maker in the match, sinking a first half shot to give the Saints the advantage.
• The Marymount back line played strong defense, putting up the clean sheet behind strong play from captain Mia Londregan and her defense. 
• Grace Needham earned her first win in the goal for the Saints on the season, knocking away two saves. 

How It Happened

• As time was ticking down in the first half, the Saints pushed an offensive effort looking to take a lead into halftime. Hanna Asanovich found Harkins with an open lane, who pushed forward and sank the shot past a diving Fighting Squirrels goalkeeper. 
• The goal was all the Saints needed, as the defense held strong in the second half to keep the shutout in tact and give MU a strong, defining win. 

Up Next

• Though the Saints are away from home for the rest of the regular season, they will play significant soccer for their final two matches. Traveling to Cabrini this Saturday, they'll take on the Cavaliers in a 2:00 PM match before rounding out the regular season at Immaculata next Wednesday at 4:00 PM.
