• Junior Nick Pensavalle secured one goal scored
• Seniors James Dacos and Connor Owenburg tallied one assist

How it happened

• St. Joseph's and Old Westbury were in a defensive battle until the 28th minute when Tolkin was tackled hard in the box, awarding a penalty kick that allowed the freshman to put SJLI on the board first to take a one-goal lead
• The Golden Eagles added to their lead in the 32nd minute when Seara got behind the backline off the pass from Dacos and Pulisic to beat the keeper
• Just 20 seconds later, Tolkin scored his second goal of the match off the pass from Owenburg to give SJLI a 3-0 lead to end the half
• Early in the second half, the Panthers were able to get their first goal of the game to cut the deficit to just two
• Pensavalle put St. Joseph's ahead by three again in the 70th minute off the feed from Tolkin, and in the final 10 minutes of play Pulisic found the back of the net twice to secure the win for SJLI

Notes

• SJLI collected 25 shots to Old Westbury's eight
• The Panthers were awarded four corner kicks, while the Golden Eagles had three
• Five yellow cards were issued in the match, with four going to the Panthers and one to St. Joseph's
