Widener looked to take a step toward making the Commonwealth Conference Tournament, but was handed a 2-0 loss by Lebanon Valley at Leslie C. Quick Jr. Stadium.

Lebanon Valley (11-4-3, 4-1 CC) took a 1-0 lead in the 32nd minute when Katie Deardorff netted her second goal of the year. The Dutchmen wasted little time in the second half, scoring 3:22 in when Heather Tran converted a header from Sarah Wannlund for her seventh marker of the season.
