Buonpastore led the South squad with four points, which came on a pair of goals and assists, while Robinson assisted on one of the team’s 15 scores.  Borrell helped lead the defense to a terrific effort, limiting the North squad to just a single goal in the second half.

Buonpastore scored one of her goals in the early going to give the South a 2-0 advantage and her second score gave the South a 5-2 lead.  She then assisted on the South’s sixth goal and her and Robinson assisted on the team’s final two scores.

CUA’s three selections to the North-South game were its most in school history.
