Cadence Talbert was peppered with three tries inside the first 10 minutes but turned all three back. The Tars had a close-range chance in the 20th minute, with subsequent shots on a free kick from inside the box, but Eckerd's defense fended off the tries. Neither team was able to find the back of the net in the first frame.
