How it happened:
- Freshman goalkeeper Cole White came up with some fantastic saves to keep the shutout in tact throughout most of the first half. He stopped a free kick chance by Jordan Cooper in the 20th minute followed up by a header save on Jacob Guerrini two minutes later. White finished the day registering 18 saves.
- New Kensington's Jordan Cooper would eventually find the back of the net in the 40th minute on a set-up by Jose Antonio Del Carmen Montenegro. That goal would be Cooper's 9th of the season.
- Cooper would also give New Kensington a cushion by netting his second of the day and 10th goal of the season in 73rd minute.
- The Mont Alto attack was paced by Bryce Kylor who registered two shots on goal, Connor Geis and Thomas Oberholzer also registered a shot on goal a piece.
