Furman gets a penalty kick at the 28th minute and Furman scores as #10 Valentina Mosquera gets the Paladins in the lead 1-0. What a huge pick me up for this team as they have been rotating all their players getting much needed playing time for its players. Coach Burr is looking towards the SoCon schedule and making sure if he has any more injuries that he has players who have got plenty of meaningful minutes.
