Penn State, seeking its first win of the season, faced Delaware, a team riding high after an overtime victory Friday night.

After a back-and-forth game, Penn State came out on top courtesy of a late goal from Sophia Gladieux to beat Delaware 5-4 and get its first win of the season.

A key focus for Penn State, highlighted by Coach Lisa Bervinchak Love after a loss to Syracuse, was to score early. With two corner-shot opportunities in the first 90 seconds of play, the blue and white had its chance.

However, a save by Cecile Van Eijck on Gladieux and a wide shot from Ella Jennes ended an early Penn State threat.
