The season started perfectly for Saint Mary's, pressuring the Mustangs and forcing mistakes in the opposition's half from the first whistle. The newcomers on the Gaels set the tone, as freshman got the Gaels on the scoresheet just 30 minutes into the first half.

On a perfect ball from fellow freshman , Slavestrin wiggled her way into the right side of the box, where she then blasted a right footed shot, careening off the right post, then the left, before settling into the bottom left corner to make it 1-0 SMC.
