After a patient build up, Anson Sentor provided a cross for Smith to score his second goal right before halftime. Early in the second half, Smith earned an assist as he set up Sentor for the third and final goal of the game.

Booker Gifford and Kerick Kohler split time in net as the goalkeeper for the clean sheet.
