THE MATCH
Looking to get back on terms in the Great Midwest, the Trojans faced a tough Dragons team who had previously beaten them this season. After the whistle was blown, the Trojans looked to assemble their offense out of the back. It paid off in the early going as Trevecca won two corner kicks in the first five minutes. It was the Dragons, however, who struck first nearly five minutes later. Tommaso Favro received a pass from Joel Daly to put Tiffin on the board in the 11th minute. The Dragons enjoyed the goal advantage the remaining 34 minutes of the half and led 1-0 at the break. In the second half, the Trojans' offensive tactics changed. Playing with more aggression and pace, the Trojans were pressing up high. It was the Dragons, however, who were rewarded with a pair of goals. First, George McCarthy finished a ball in the 49th minute, and then Joel Daly connected with Tobias Rawson Paz for a finish in the 62nd minute to give the Dragons the 3-0 win.
