Toledo's goals were scored by senior Natalie Knauf and sophomore Alex Troy. Knauf's goal came in the 14th minute off a penalty kick. Senior Hannah Scafaria dribbled into the box but was taken down by the heel before she could shoot. Knauf was elected to the dot and calmly placed it left of the keeper to put UT up 1-0 and claim her first goal of the season.
 
Troy's goal came in the 36th minute. Sophomore Sophia Lewis took the ball in to the right of the 18-yard box and played a short pass that Troy was able to place to the left of the goalkeeper. Troy's goal was her second of the year.
