Our adjustments and our pressure were too much for them in the second half. I’m proud of the whole team for second-half response. It was an important win for us.”
Pitt found itself trailing at the half for the first time in 2022 when Chloe O’Neill scored in the 25th minute to give Miami a 1-0 lead.
The Panthers got back in the game in the 50th minute, though, as freshman Katie Zailski scored her second goal in as many games on a set piece to even the score.
