Thomas didn't take long to respond. 8 minutes later, James Hall was able to find Aaron Sindhar to break the score again and give Thomas a 2-1 lead. SCAD showed they still had something left in the tank. In the 80th minute, Caio Lara was able to tie the match up once again. Like the Night Hawks had done all day, they were able to respond. Four minutes went by, and Findlay Cook was able to find Diego Azar for his second goal of the day to give Thomas the 3-2 lead and ultimately the win!
