The Cardinals tied the game at one all in the 84^th minute when junior standout Luke Lennox fielded a long pass, outran a defender and juked the keeper before scoring with a low blast down the middle.

 

The Yellowjackets answered quickly, putting the game just out of reach when Rochester's Sean Hantes scored his second goal of the game just 68 seconds later.
