Kalie Quaglia opened the scoring with her second tally of the season, finishing a cross from
Gigi Duncan in the 21st minute. The assist was Duncan's first as a River Hawk.
The River Hawks had several chances to double their lead, but needed to wait until just before halftime to get it, with the goal coming in the 38th minute when
Kim Dalessio took down an attempted clearance by the Aggies' goalkeeper and half-volleying in from close range with the ball striking the crossbar on its way in.
There was a quick two goals for the River Hawks at the start of the second half, scoring in the 49th and 50th minutes. The first of those two came courtesy of
Ava Billmeyer, who turned away from a pair of defenders before beating the goalkeeper by firing a shot into the top right corner of the net. The next goal came just 85 seconds later, with Billmeyer turning provider when her through ball found
Morgan Stickley, who beat a defender to the ball before placing a first-time effort into the back of the net.
The Aggies pulled a goal back, but it was only a consolation as Jess Williamson scored in the 65th minute.
At the end of the 90 minutes, the shots totaled 18 for Susquehanna and six for Delaware Valley, with each team taking nine and three in each half respectively. DelVal's two goalkeepers made seven saves between them, and
