NEWARK, DE - Stacey Finley scored the game-winning goal in the 75th minute to lead Navy to a 2-0 win over Delaware in a non-league women's soccer match Sunday at Delaware Mini-Stadium.

Finley gathered a through ball from Heather Thomas and outraced the Delaware defense to give the Mids a 1-0 lead at 74:02.

Amelia Sheveland added a goal at 79:52 to ensure Navy's (12-0-4) unbeaten campaign continues. They are one of only three teams in the country without a loss this season.

The Blue Hens had a chance to take a 1-0 lead midway through the first half when Francesca Termini headed a pass from Maria Pollaro towards the net, but Navy goalkeeper Kim Bonafede dove to her left to make one of her four saves on the afternoon.

Lindsay Shover made three saves in a losing effort for Delaware.

Delaware (7-6-1) returns to action Friday when it hosts Colonial Athletic Association rival Old Dominion at 7 p.m.
