Six different players scored in the balanced attack. Three of Skidmore's four second-half goals came from non-starters.

In the second half, Reinero started a run of four Skidmore goals in the game's final 19 minutes when he converted a well-place pass from Mark Roseboom to make it 3-0 at 71:38.  Pat Wildes (Hamden, Conn.) scored from Taylor Alderson (Berkeley, Calif.) three minutes later at 74:41 for a 4-0 lead.

Mark Jensen (Cambridge, Mass.) made it 5-0 at 85:22 and Ernie Economides (Bournedale, Mass.) converted a penalty kick for the sixth goal at 88:04.

Nick Peterson (West Hartford, Conn.) and Lucas Millington (Chatham Center, N.Y.) combined for the shutout.  Peterson had two saves both in the first half.  Skidmore out shot the Mountaineers 33-2 overall and 18-0 in the second half.
