Game Recap
- The early going of the match was relatively quiet until the Highlanders made the Eagles pay for a defensive mistake
- While retrieving a long ball, Taeyoon Oh tried to play a pass back to Sam Bell but mishit the ball and Jared Dubose raced to strike a shot past Bell for the early lead
- In the 24th minute, Stefan Sildor picked up the ball about 35 yards out and dribbled toward goal and after a couple of crafty moves approaching the top of the 18 he worked himself an opening inside the box and fired a shot on frame that was turned away by Joseba Incera
- Radford led 1-0 at the break and took a 2-0 lead just 1:27 into the second half
- Samuel Schwartz dribbled the ball out wide and found enough space to serve a ball into the box at the near post as Dubose ran on and headed it into the back of the net
- The Highlanders added a third goal in the 83rd minute as Patrick Figaro dribbled to the end line and dropped a pass to Collin Hawes who struck a shot first time by Bell
