Manhattanville would respond early in the second half as Jen Ascencio tied the game at 1-1 with a back-handed shot over King's goalie Erin McGinley. From there Berryman would push cross her first goal of the match from middle of the circle off an assist from Shelby Trenge to give King's back the lead at 2-1 with just under three minutes to play.
