Alderosn Broaddus (0-2-1) was only able to muster that lone shot on target, coming in the 74th minute. The Battlers did have an attempt ring off the crossbar and the Senators fired a shot off the post as both sides had close looks.
The Senators had eight shots on frame, with four attempts coming from Milliken and two more off the foot of
Alexa Karsel.
Milliken scored her first goal of the season and Cabal added her first assist of the spring 2021 campaign.
