The Roadrunner's got off to a slow start allowing a shot by the Hilltoppers in the first minute of the game, but were able to counter with a shot of their own in the eighth, ending the half with two good offensive opportunities.
 
The second half was a back in forth battle with both sides not capitalizing on any chance, resulting in the game going into extra time.
 
The first overtime period was scoreless for both sides.  But St. Edward's would score the game winning goal in the 114^th minute when the Hilltoppers earned a corner. Morgan Palmer scored a rebounded shot to the left side of the goal, ending the game at 1-0.
 
The Roadrunners look to rebound against Seattle Pacific University Thursday, September 7 at 3 p.m. at the Regency Athletic Complex.
