TURNING POINT
Enstrom provided a 2-0 cushion in the 59^th minute when Lewis fed him beautifully for his second goal of the game.

HOW IT HAPPENED
- Both sides took just two shots in the first half and both of BC's came on the same sequence. A bad pass on the Virginia back line gave freshman Trevor Davock the ball. He found Moro to the left and he fired a shot on net. It was saved, but the keeper couldn't hold on to the slick ball and Enstrom put it back home for the 1-0 lead in the 34^th minute.
- Enstrom tacked on his second of the game in the 59^th minute. Lewis handled the ball at the top of the box and flicked a gorgeous pass to Enstrom who finished it for the 2-0 lead.
- Virginia made a strong push in the final 10 minutes, taking six corner kicks and five shots.
- The Cavaliers scored in the 86^th minute off a corner as Patrick Foss sent the ball into the box. Wesley Suggs sat at the far post and fed Jean-Christophe Koffi who finished it to cut the deficit to 2-1.
- UVA had large advantages in shots (10-2) and corner kicks (10-0) in the second half.
