How it Happened:

Maggie MacDonald's first half goal proved to be the gamewinner, as the Rams held on for a 1-0 victory over George Washington.

MacDonald tallied her second goal of the season in the 28th minute, as Jennifer Barrientos served up a pinpoint accurate pass into the box.  Ashley Boyle collected the pass and headed it toward the net before MacDonald put it past GW goalkeeper Nicole Fasano.
