HOW IT HAPPENED
• Despite a bevy of offensive chances, it took the hosts 32 minutes to break the scoreless deadlock. Junior forward Amber Almeida (Sturbridge, Mass.) found a ball played by sophomore midfielder Hannah Rezendes (Bristol, R.I.) to score what proved to be the eventual game-winner.
 
• Less than a minute later, Rezendes was gifted the ball by the Buccaneer defense in front of an open net to tie Almeida with five goals apiece to lead the team.
 
• Senior forward Tayshia Cary (Wakefield, R.I.) broke in from the wing in the 37^th minute and her shot went through the goalkeeper's hands and right to Weekly, who buried the first of her career into an open net.  
 
• RIC dominated the second half as well and capitalized on a corner kick 10 minutes into the period when junior defender Leah Saunders (Smithfield, R.I.) headed in her first of the season.
 
• Freshman midfielder Dakota Landry (Hope, R.I.) capped off the scoring for the day with her first collegiate points in the 66th minute.

• Junior goalkeeper Nicole Nunes (Smithfield, R.I.) registered the win (2-0) without having to make a save for her second shutout of the year.
 
• Seven Anchorwomen registered at least one point in the win. Five of RIC's seven wins have been shutouts.
 
• Mass. Maritime has not scored a goal in 10 games this fall.
