Jack Leahy (Pittsford Sutherland) got the Pioneers on the board 11:02 into the game after getting a pass from David Benson (Shenendehowa). 

Joey Zachary evened up the game just over four minutes later after getting a pass from Ander Castillo. Castillo gave the Mavericks (13-3-1) the lead for good 22:06 into the contest when he was able to score after getting a crossing pass from Eric Metade. 

Medtade added to the lead in the 51st minute and Castillo netted his second of the day in the 57th to add insurance.
