First Half
- The momentum fell into the hands of North Greenville in the opening 12 minutes as the Crusaders outshot the Trojans 4-to-1.

Second Half
- The Trojans had no answer for the Crusader's attack in the second half as North Greenville blasted home three more goals to balloon their lead to 5-0 and solidify the victory for NGU.
