Jackson's Eclipse came to town and Storm was less than hospitable, winning a hard fought battle 4-2. Jessica Saldutti scored her first goal of the season streaking in to the left post and depositing a loose ball from the 6. Keeper Mary Kate Harnett kept Eclipse off the scoreboard the rest of the half with the help of defenders Meg Regan, Katie Bertrand and Kayla Zosulis. Jackson tied it early in the second as Storm failed to clear the zone. Grace O'Leary regained the lead throwing up a crossing shot which Eclipse failed to control in front of the goal. Later in the half, O'Leary stole the ball at the right of the 18, slipped the defenders and fired it inside the far post. Danielle Faup put the game away for good thanks to strong work on the right wing by Paityn Morgan who battled for a loose ball and crossed it to Faup for the 4th goal. Jackson scored their final on a penalty kick resulting from a handball in the box.
