In the nineteenth minute, the Lancers’ Daelyn Paul scored the equalizer from 15 yards out on the left side.
Westmont goalkeeper Lindsey Smith tallied three saves for Westmont while California Baptist keepers Meagan Bellefueille, a Dos Pueblos High School alumnae, and Leigh Ann Lindsey combined to post three Lancer saves.
