PARKVILLE, MO--Hard-working junior forward Tunde Nemeth out-hustled the
Lindenwood University backfield for the fifth goal of the match to give Park the
3-2 advantage in the 85th   minute

Daniel at the 10:30 mark. Lindenwood's Eeva-Maria Saari evened the score
thirty minute later, leaving the match 1-1 during halftime. A corner kick
by Daniel, passed from Kesiann Francis to Nemeth to the net, put Park ahead
early in the second half. Daniel iced the match with Park's fourth goal in
the final minute. Keeper Jenni Visala made 12 saves for Park.
