With Wagner on top 6-2 early in the third quarter, the Highlanders went on a 3-0 run, bridging the third and fourth quarters, capped by Ryan Kaden goal with 13:37 left to play in making it a 6-5 game. Wagner answered with an unassisted blast by senior midfielder Joe Lomeli from 10 yards out at the 12:02 mark which gave Seahawks a 7-5 cushion. Both defenses took over from there, as neither side could find the net the rest of the way as the Seahawks held on for the win.
