La Verne's offense produced seven shots in the first half to Claremont-Mudd-Scripps' nine, but only one in the second half with the Stags attempting eight. The Leopards were awarded two corner kicks versus six for Claremont-Mudd-Scripps. 

Senior midfielders David Gonzalez and Fernando Almejo led La Verne with two shots apeice. Freshman goalie Dylan Roberts recorded six saves.
