Lafayette had the opportunity to take the lead in the 78th minute when senior Jon Ford finished a cross just wide of the net. St. Francis forward Khaled Abdella scored the game-winner for the Terriers in the 86th minute.
 
Lafayette recorded two shots, one of which was on goal. St. Francis recorded eight shots with six being on goal. Lombard and Ford each had one shot apiece for the Leopards.
