The half ended at 4-4 tie, as Knight beat the goalie for her first goal of the game and Reyna Clark added another one in crunch time.

At the start of the third quarter, Chapman took a 5-4 lead, but Knight scored three-straight goals to give the Regals a 7-5 advantage. The Panthers tied the game back up at eight, but in the last 30 seconds, Gardhouse ripped a shot into the back of the cage to win the game for the Purple & Gold.

The Regals will travel to Caltech on Wednesday, April 16, at 7:00 p.m. as they look to keep they tournament birth alive with just two regular season games remaining.
