Defensively, senior Meghan McCurnin got the start in net and had a series of outstanding saves where she narrowly kept the ball out of the net to keep the game scoreless.
 
Centenary would break the scoreless tie in the 32nd minute off a corner ball that was deflected into the back of the net for the 1-0 Cyclone lead.
 
In the second half, the Mighty Macs again applied pressure with a couple corner attempts a shots in the second half, but they were unable to net the equalizer in a tough one-goal loss.
 
IU had nine shots and McCurnin made nine saves.
 
Immaculata will now travel to Baptist Bible on Wednesday for a 4 p.m. CSAC match.
