After trailing 1-0 following the half, Joe Mepham (Sudbury, Mass.) and Joe Cusack (Foxboro, Mass.) found the foot of Keveen Delgado (Pittsfield, Mass.) at the 74:07 mark to tie the match one all.
From there, the defensive standstill continued for both schools as the match resulted in a tie. As of this year, overtime is no longer played in regular season matches due to NCAA rules.
