Finally Noah Greene finished a well placed ball from Issac Austin giving the Mustangs their 7th and final  goal of the game.

After the game, Coach Bryan Wallace, commented, "We started off the game a little slow allowing Hampshire to be competitive in the first 15-minutes, but I think our guys finally woke up and we got back to the style of play that we're accustomed to. It's definitely something we will be working on in preparation for NHTI this coming Saturday but overall I was pleased with how well we played."

The Mustangs are back in action on Saturday the 26th where they will be fighting NHTI for a chance to play in the finals the following day.
