Rush can’t stop slide, Pali

Hannah Peterson's second half goal was enough to keep the Colorado Rush close to the Pali Blues on Saturday, but it wasn't enough to close the gap on the visitors from California.

Defender Elizabeth Eddy and midfielder Mariah Nogueira gave the Blues a two-goal first half cushion. While Colorado staged a comeback in the second half, generating four corners and two shots on goal during the second 45 minutes, the Rush was unable to close on the Blues.
