A shot from both Chalbaud and Abril came in the 51st minute both were unable to connect. 

HPU kept the pressure on as Mason Marcey's corner found Finn McRobb but it was shot just high.

HPU's hard work and persistence would pay off as in the 64th minute High Point scored its first goal of the night as Marcey put a picture-perfect corner in, and Chalbaud slammed it home from the doorstep. 1-0.
