NCCC freshman goalkeeper Landan Rees made six saves to earn the shutout. All-conference sophomore Jacob Korte and freshman Austin Osetkowski were strong the backline, while sophomores Joseph Jenkins and Patrick Bululu were solid two-way performers in the midfield.

Sophomore Solomon Bonane led the Thunderwolves with four shots, while freshman Sunday Munguikonasi had the team's best scoring chance early in the second half.
