In the 66th minute, sophomore defender Trey Hill sprinted half the distance of the pitch and into the Virginia Peninsula box, squaring a pass to Sam Dafaa who buried it in the back of the net fo rthe seventh goal of the match.
Jackson Pullen's 72nd minute goal, assisted by Andrew Crews, ended the match early with an eight-goal lead and more than 70 minutes played. The freshman midfielder scored his first collegiate goal just five minutes earlier.
