Just two minutes later, sophomore Stephen Betz converted a penalty kick to extend the Orange's advantage, 4-0.

In the 84th minute, sophomore Michal Gradus scored the fifth goal on the evening on an assist from senior Camden Holbrook. Senior defender Abdi Salim ended the scoring in the 85th minute on a header, assisted by Antonino Pagano.
