Ava Nunan and Taylor Hudson scored goals for the Chargers and Genesis Reyes was credited with the assist.
“The experience we gained tonight against a very strong Bethesda team was invaluable,” said coach Julie Hodges. “The opportunity to play against a high level team early will only prepare us for a tough conference schedule starting with Danville in week two.
