The Beavers of Bemidji State defeated Upper Iowa 3-0 at Pattison Field in Fayette, Iowa.
The Peacocks dominated play in the first half by controlling the midfield and possession of the ball. The Peacocks fired 9 shots in the half compared to just 3 by the Beavers. Upper Iowa also held an advantage in corners by a 8-0 count. However, it was the Beavers who went to the locker room at halftime with a 1-0 lead on a goal by Kelly Hyvare. Christina Hicks and Katie Meinhardt picked up assists on the score. Bemidji began to take more control as the second half progressed and thanks to a penalty kick in the 64th minute, the Beavers took a 2-0 lead. Bemidji finished the scoring off in the 72nd minute on a corner kick that found its way over the goal line and past Peacock goalkeeper Sarah Hiatt.

The rest of the team only managed to fire a combined 4 shots on goal in the game.
