The game started out with opportunities from both the Devils and the Pioneers, as each team traded shots at the net. At 25:08, The Pioneers struck first, with a William Paterson player finding another in front of the net, giving them the 1-0 lead.

The Devils kept on pressing, and they found the breakthrough just before the half, as Christian Adame (Passaic, NJ) shot a ball that deflected off a William Paterson defender and into the net to equalize the game at one a piece. The match remained that way at the half.

FDU came back firing on all cylinders. At 56:39, Drilon Toska (Lincoln Park, NJ) unleashed a strike that the Pioneers goalkeeper couldn't handle to push the Devils into the lead 3-1. Then barely over two minutes later, Irfan Kermalli (Parsippany, NJ) found Piotr Widerynski (Ringwood, NJ) with a gorgeous pass that was slotted into the bottom corner of the net to extend the scoreline to 3-1.

The Pioneers wouldn't give up however, as at 67:28, a Pioneers player tapped the ball in front of the net to minimize the lead to 3-2. That's all William Paterson could get, as the Devils defense held firm, and the Devils picked up the 3-2 win.
 
Victor Ciach (Ringwood, NJ) had a productive match in the net, racking up six saves. The shot total was almost exactly even, as the Pioneers only shot once more than the Devils (19-18) while the shots on goal were exactly even (8-8). FDU dominated corner kicks (8-0) while also earning slightly more fouls (14-8).
 
The Devils will travel to Dallas, Pennsylvania to take on the Misericordia Cougars in MAC Freedom Conference action on October 12th at 3:00 PM.
