The Benedictine Mesa Women's Soccer Team faced a tough challenge on the road against The Master's University. The game started with early action as goalkeeper Alinah Hueramo made a crucial save in the 2nd minute. Benedictine quickly responded when Dahlia Alonso fired a shot on goal, but it was saved by the opposing goalkeeper. The Master's gained control shortly after, scoring their first goal in the 3rd minute, setting the tone for a difficult first half. By the 25th minute, The Master's extended their lead to 3-0 with two more goals.
Benedictine struggled to create offensive chances, with limited opportunities, including a wide shot from Brylee Rod in the 34th minute. Meanwhile, The Master's continued their aggressive play, scoring two additional goals before halftime, leaving Benedictine trailing 5-0 at the break.
The second half saw The Master's keep up the pressure, adding five more goals. Hueramo, who led Benedictine's defense with 12 saves, worked tirelessly, but the constant attacks were too much to handle. Despite the scoreline, Benedictine showed resilience, with late-game contributions from substitutes like Kanoelani Quintal and Kataryna Spicer.
