ST. CATHARINES, Ont - An early lead for Brock (3-7 OUA) was not enough to hold off the No. 2 ranked Lions (9-0-1 OUA). 

The Badgers got off to a quick start when Brooke Boekestyn beat her defender and placed a right-footed shot passed York goaltender Courtney Davis to give the home side an early 1-0 lead in the 16th minute. With the goal, Boekestyn tied the Brock single season school record with her 8th goal of the season.

Just five minutes after the Brock goal, York striker Nour Ghoneim redirected an oncoming shot to tie the game in the 21st minute. Ghoneim proved to be a dominant player for the Lions early on, as she was able to get on the score sheet again in the 25th minute, but this time with an assist to Christina Morelli who found the back of the net with a well placed shot from the right wing. 

York dominated the posession of the ball for the majority of the first half as Brock was only able to get two shots on net, compared to York's eight. 

Brock started strong in the second half, as they were able control posession and create a few positive plays on the attack. But York was not about to let the Badgers take control. 

Instead they regained control of the game with a goal in the 74th minute by Aisha Lewis. The Badgers defence was under constant pressure in the second half trying to contain the aggressive York attack. This agressive play style by York almost cost them a goal in the 80th minute when Brock striker Boekestyn found herself in a 1-on-1 situation with Davis, but could not find a way to put the ball past her opponent. York striker Ghoneim scored her second goal of the game in the 90th minute to secure a convincing 4-1 victory over the Badgers. 

In goal, Brock starter Meaghan Buckingham collected seeven saves in the loss. York's Davis turned aside four of the five shots she faced for the road win.

The Brock women will be back in action on Sunday, September 28th when they take on the Guelph Gryphons on the road.
