After 83 scoreless minutes of play junior midfielder Kelsey O'Rourke knocked in a loose ball in front of the net to give the Huskies the 1-0 win. It is O'Rourke's first collegiate goal.

Junior forward Maria Picard crossed the ball in front of the Holy Cross goal and after it bounced off a Crusader defender O'Rourke was able to push it in for the win.

Senior captain Annie Petrofsky had six saves in her second shutout of the season.

The Huskies are at New Hampshire Saturday at 7 p.m.
