After a miss by Ana Bengoechea in the 69th minute, Teng found the back of the net in the 71st minute off of an assist by Maria Touloumes. The goal came on Teng's third shot of the game.
Sophomore goalkeeper Clara Aranguren turned back two shots and got the win for the Jays. Senior forward Hannah Kronick tallied three shots. On the night the Blue Jays outshot Montclair 11-8 and attempted 10 corners to Montclair's one.
