Stockton goalkeeper Nicole Pallante (Brick/Brick Twp.) faced just one shot on goal and made the save to post her fourth shutout of the year.

Defensively, the Stockton backline of Alexa Rubino (Voorhees/Eastern), Samantha Rodrigues (Clark/Arthur L. Johnson), Karleigh Niedt (Jackson/Jackson Memorial) and Colleen Collins (Sicklerville/Timber Creek) neutralized a Rowan offense that was averaging a league-leading 4.44 goals per game.
 
Stockton held a slim 5-4 edge in shots during a first half and survived a near-miss by Rowan's Sarah Rosenberg that hit the crossbar. The Ospreys outshot the Profs 4-2 in the second half and Rowan answered with a 3-2 advantage during the two overtime periods but neither team was able to find the back of the net and the game ended in a 0-0 draw.
 
Stockton will travel to Montclair State on Saturday for an NJAC game at 1 p.m.
