Oregon Tech's Ian Van der Zwan (So. Central Point, Ore.) tied the game at 1-1, as he scored from 22 yards out in the 25th minute. The game stayed tied at one until the 72nd minute when the Penguins got the game winning goal from Shaine Huiberts (Jr. San Juan Capistano, Calif.).
Oregon Tech had more shots in the game with an 11-10 advantage and doubled the Penguins in shots on goal 6-3.
Four yellow cards were handed out, two to each team. One red card was also issued to Dominican in the game which featured 25 fouls, 16 of those whistled on the home team.
