Alaina Hunt put ODU on the board off a corner, as she blasted a rocket staight into the back of the net past keeper Donna Barg.
Sam Salvia scored on a penalty stroke at the 20-minute mark when she flicked the ball over and right ofBarg. Karen Neiss capped the scoring as she launched her own rebound at the 30:20 mark.
``We're one of the few teams who'll put themselves on the line playing one and two back to back,'' ODU coach Beth Anders said. ``The kids decided they wanted it.''
