Leslie Canas would extend the Tigers lead to 2-0 with a goal in the 46^th minute off a great cross from Senior Celena Vanhaezebrouck.

Spurgeon found life in the 77^th minute as a defensive miscue by the Tigers led to a Knights goal to cut the lead to 2-1. The Tigers would go on to avoid any last minute drama and win by this score of 2-1.

The Tigers (1-1), are back in McPherson on Saturday night as they welcome Friends University to town. Kickoff is scheduled for 7:30PM. The game will be streamed live on the SAC Sports Network and Urban Edge Network.
