Hernandez then assisted Lucas Duke on the second goal just over five minutes later. Perry found the net in the 53^rd minute with the assist coming from Blake Webb, and Hernandez and Perry teamed up again as Hernandez notched his second goal in the 62^nd minute for the 4-0 advantage.

LaGrange Andrew Cole picked up the shutout win as he played all 90 minutes and made four saves. Gents' senior GK Sami Borchalli (Lafayette, La.) took the loss as he also played all 90 minutes and made four saves.
