How It Happened
 
* The lone goal of the game came in the 79th minute when junior Hannah Florentino (Philadelphia, Pa./Nazareth Academy) broke a scoreless tie with her second goal of the season.  Florentino managed to get a shot off towards the top-right corner of the net after a scramble in the box for the ball from a corner kick attempt by senior Yasmine Machlof (Huntingdon Valley, Pa./Lower Moreland).
 
* Holy Family outshot the Warriors, 13-3, for the game.  Nyack managed just one shot on-goal with it coming in the 87th minute.  Senior goalkeeper Alayna McSeed (Bensalem, Pa./Bensalem) made the stop to keep the shutout intact.

* McSeed recorded her seventh shutout of the season as she improves to 10-3-2 in net this season.
