Forward Mandy Merritt had three shots for the Hens

BOSTON-- Kelly Smith headed home a corner kick from Jen Herlihy 23:29 into the match to give the Northeastern University women's soccer team a 1-0 win over the University of Delaware Sunday afternoon in Boston in the season finale for both teams.

Delaware, which finished its season 11-7-1 and 4-5 in the America East, got its best chance with just over 18 minutes remaining in the match when Mandy Merritt's shot from 15 yards out was stopped on a great save by Huskies goalkeeper Sarah Reidel. Both teams registered 14 shots in the match.

Rachel Bersin made four saves for Delaware, which failed to qualify for the America East Tournament for the second time in three years. Ginette Buffone led the Blue Hen attack with four shots, as Delaware held a 7-3 advantage on corner kicks.

Reidel made five saves for Northeastern (11-6-1, 5-4), which also did not make the conference tournament.
