Old Westbury wasted no time getting on the board in the first half, as Justin Leakey scored on a breakaway at the 7:59 mark.  Then at the 30:31 mark Leakey struck again for his second goal of the game.  The Green and White added it third goal in the 47^th minute as Justin Leakey and John Senatore found a streaking Orlando McFarlane who put the ball past Mount Saint Vincent goalkeeper James Green.  The Panthers scored just over 19 minutes later when Brandon DeNoyer found John Senatore on a touch off a corner kick to put the Panthers up, 4-0.  Mount Saint Vincent answered just under 14 minutes later when Zachary Coppola scored on a free ball from 20 yards out to close the deficit to three goals.  Moments later at the 82:11 mark, Fitzroy Lawson used his head to score off a crossing pass from Zachary Coppola.  John Senatore then hammered a line drive from the middle to sail the ball past the outstretched arms of Green to give the Panthers the 5-2 edge.    

Old Westbury was dominant in the scoring department, as they out shot Mount Saint Vincent by a 25-7 margin.  Goalkeeper Brian Hicks finished with one save in 78:23 minutes in part to the swarming Panther defense.
