Thiel (0-9, 0-9) picked up their first and only goal of the game at the 23-minute mark by Evan Young. 20 minutes later, the Tomcats fouled the Bearcats in the box as Saint Vincent (4-4, 4-3) was awarded a penalty kick. Brandon Lowe lined up the kick and buried the ball into the back of the net to tie the game.
 
SVC went into halftime tied with the Tomcats 1-1.
 
In the second half, it was an even battle between Thiel and Saint Vincent, until the 68th minute when Ryan O'Leary scored the Bearcat goal thanks to assists from Cory Northrup and Frank Singer.
 
Both teams had several opportunities to score late but both goalies, Shane Piper and Devin Weisbarth, denied the chances. SVC stood its ground and held on for the 2-1 victory.

Piper made five saves in the victory, playing all 90 minutes.
