A very hard-fought Sixth Street Rivalry between two teams needing points in the SCIAC standings.  The Sagehens and Stags played a very physical first half with both teams desperate to get a go-ahead goal early in the game, but neither team could come up with a goal as the two teams went into halftime tied at 0-0. 
 
The scoring picked up in the second half as the Stags scored first with the ball headed on to an open CMS attacker to snuck the ball near post to take a 1-0 lead.
 
After CMS took the lead in the 55^th minute, the Sagehens literally wasted no time as they scored just seconds later after a throw-in by Leikin found the feet of MacLennan who put in a perfect curling shot into the side netting to tie the game back up at 1-1.
 
With the game looking to head towards a draw, the Stags snuck in a game-winner as a low cross from the left wing found an open player in the box and a short shot beat the keeper as the Stags stole a win late in the Sixth Street Rivalry.
 
Up Next: The Sagehens will next travel to SCIAC opponent La Verne on Saturday, October 7^th at 7:00 p.m.
