Just four minutes later, Caputo sent a ball from the far right side towards the front of the goal, and it deflected off a TCNJ defender for an own goal.
 
Rowan held a dominating 28-2 advantage in shots, with 16 in the second half alone, as keeper Travis Holiday went without recording a save due to the large margin. Rowan also took 14 corner kicks in the second half, owning a 14-4 advantage in the match, forcing TCNJ keeper Sean Najdzinowicz to make eight saves on the evening.
