Sophomore goalkeeper Nicole Groszew (Denville,

After a scoreless first half, the Lions got on the board early in
the second half as senior Dana DiBruno (Cherry Hill,
N.J.) picked up the loose ball in the box and found the
back of the net for the 1-0 lead in the 48th
minute.
The Cougars tied the game up just over five minutes later, as
senior forward Michelle Fischer (Scotch Plains,
N.J.) scored off the assist from sophomore forward
Kristin Cizek (Manalapan, N.J.) in the
53rd minute.
In the 69th minute, Kunkel netted the game-winner
from the right side as the Lions remain undefeated this season.
