Brown found the back of the net off a loose ball that went off the hands of the Sea Beggar's goalkeeper on a shot from Litsy Munoz.

Munoz picked up her second goal of the year off a nice pass by Denise Elias-Martinez. 

With the final seconds winding down the Red Hawks scored the difference maker off the foot of Martinez for the game-winner to propel Simpson over Providence 3-2.
