The Huskies best scoring chance came in the game's 12th minute when Mike Kennedy found the keeper out of place in the box and lofted a shot from about 30 yards out. The ball remained in the air just long enough for the keeper to grab it before it passed the goal line.

As the first half came to an end GMU scored however the goal was waived off because of offsides.

Alex Herrara's game-winning goal came in the 77th minute on assists from Brent Brockman and Ryan Gracia.

NU's Oliver Blum made seven saves on the day.
