While the Timberwolves continued to look for long balls to their forwards, the Vikes worked through their midfield, looking for Sawicki to constantly distribute. In the 16th minute Sawicki played a well-paced through ball to Greig, who fired the ball just outside the far post. The Vikes converted their first goal in the 27th minute when Millham followed up a shot from Greig and slipped the rebound back past UNBC's recovering keeper. 

The Vikes were able to capatilize on UNBC's double coverage with two quick goals.

Millham's second goal of the game put the Vikes up 3-0 heading into the break. 

The second half showed more of the same, the home side battled to keep the Vikes out of their end pushing the ball up field, while the visitors worked the ball through the middle forcing the Timberwolves back on their heels. 

The relentless effort from UNBC paid off in the 52nd minute. Midfielder Tianna Rossi played the ball straight up the middle to Roy, Roy turned and burned past three defenders before sailing the ball into the back of the net putting the Timberwolves on the board.

With a 3-1 lead the Vikes continued to step on the gas, netting three more goals before the end of the game.
