I was happy with the way the team battled back and claimed the win. The Broncos found themselves down 1-0 less than two minutes into the contest after a defensive lapse gave Detroit's Gwen Kilfoy an open look in the box. The Broncos responded eight minutes later when freshman defender Abi Morrell's free kick bounced past Titan keeper Erika Rust. Morrell's ball cleared the UD wall and dove down and away from the goalie just inside the near post. Classmate Megan Urbats tallied her second goal in as many matches, controlling a failed clearance as she stood unmarked in the box.
