Pensacola went into halftime after this wakeup call and rallied themselves for the second half.

After pushing for some time, the Pirates found the equalizer which was scored by Paige Phillips and assisted by Eda Doganarslan and Aiyannah Robinson. This equalizer got the Pirates back into the game leaving them wanting more.  As both teams kept pushing, the Wildcats were dangerous in the attack, but captain Remy Redmon kept the Pirates alive making a remarkable 15 saves.
