  • About six minutes later, the Lions' scored their first game-tying goal of the game as Justin Dominique's shot trickled past senior goalie Liam DeLone-Bellsey (Takoma Park, Md./Montgomery Blair) and Michael Garofalo dribbled it in for the score in the 72nd minute.
  • Sophomore forward Alex Ochman (Rockville, Md./T.S. Wootton) headed in junior forward Jason Caro's (Lanham, Md./Good Counsel) corner kick in the 79th minute for his third goal in as many games.
