Martin Methodist All-American Millene Cabral would get on the board next in the 23' with the first of her four goals on the afternoon to give the Redhawks a 2-0 advantage.

Cabral would add goals in the 31' and 38' to give Martin Methodist a 4-0 lead. Sophomore Adriana Romero had a shot to get the Lady Roadrunners on the board, but would be turned away by Martin Methodist goalkeeper Caitlin Dumond as the Redhawks went into the break with a 4-0 lead.

THE SECOND HALF
The second half would be much of the same story. Katie Reid and Riko Sagara would add goals in the 57' and 68' to extend the lead to 6-0. Romero would have one last opportunity to get the Birds on the board, but to no avail. Cabral would add her fourth goal in the 77' as #1 Martin Methodist would take the victory, 7-0.

THE REST OF THE STORY
Dalton State drops to (6-5-1 overall, 0-4 SSAC) with the loss, while #1 Martin Methodist improves to (14-0 overall, 4-0 SSAC) with the win. The Lady Roadrunners were out shot 29-4 on the afternoon, keeping Dalton State goalkeeper Rachel Hardin busy.
