HOW IT HAPPENED
-The back lines for Emerson and Babson kept each other off the scoreboard as the first 45 minutes passed with the 0-0 tie. Emerson outshot Babson 7-5, but the Beavers led in shots on goal, 4-2.
-It was Emerson who gave themselves several opportunities to snap the scoreless game, the first coming in the 59th minute. Johnston fired a shot that dinged the left post and went to wide to the left, which allowed the Lions a corner. A minute later, Bruce first a low shot just past the left post.
-The next opportunity the Lions gained came in the 65th minute when junior Madeline Khaw broke away with one defender on trailing, but her shot landed in the hands of Fedosiewich as the score held 0-0.
-After Fedosiewich saved Khaw's shot, Babson used their next several possessions to give themselves the chance to break the tie. Schaub came in clutch and turned away the Beavers' next three shots to preserve the 0-0 draw.
