The Setters maintained the lead for a majority of the second half but fell short of the shutout when Sam Ford of Bentley put the ball in the net at 83:41.  Ferro scored her sixth season goal at 87:49 on an assist from Trymbulak to put the Setters up 3-1.  Bentley was unable to respond before the clock ran out.
