How it Happened 

• Milliken opened the scoring at the 11:16 mark of the first half with an unassisted strike for his third goal of the season. 

• Niagara scored its lone goal of the contest on a penalty kick attempt in the 21st minute off the foot of Barnes to tie the game up at 1-1. 

• Coming out for second half action tied up at one apiece, Stonehill scored early and often as Lima-Bittencourt found the back of the net off a pass from Woznicki in the 52nd minute to give the Skyhawks back the lead.  

• Woznicki kept his solid game going, scoring a goal of his own just four minutes later and extending the Stonehill advantage to 3-1. 

• Continuing to pour on the offense in the second half, Lima-Bittencourt netted his second goal of the game and second of his young career in the 63rd minute. 

• The biggest moment on the defensive end of the field came in the 76th minute when Dias Neto dove to his right to stop a Purple Eagle penalty kick attempt. 

• Meyer would cap off the Skyhawks scoring with a header off a corner kick from Jaramilo in the 77th minute before netting his second of the contest on an unassisted strike in the 84th minute.
