VT (2-0) earned its second corner of the game in the 62nd minute with the match tied at 1-1. The ball eventually found Hokie Madi Conyers just inside the box. WVU (1-1) was able to block the shot but was whistled for a handball. Candace Cephers made the most of the awarded penalty kick, beating senior Hannah Steadman and giving the advantage back to VT for good.
“I think what’s really good is that we created many, many chances, but unfortunately, when you don’t finish three balls within the six, those missed opportunities come back to haunt you,” said Mountaineer coach Nikki Izzo-Brown.
