Miele kept the score at 1-1 early in the second half as he stopped a shot by the Tigers' Davis Habilaj. Holy Family would get another look at the net in the 57th minute as Habilaj had another shot denied by Miele.
Following a corner kick at the 78:57 mark that would be taken by senior
Sergio Bortolon, Ferreira found a loose ball that deflected off the goalkeeper and deposited it into the back of the net to make it 2-1 Warriors.
Miele fought-off one final push by the Tigers as Montag tallied his fourth shot on frame but would be denied by the Warriors' goalie.
Miele (3-1-2) made five saves in the contest for ESU, while Tobin (2-2) made two saves. Turocy tallied a pair of shots on goal for the Warriors, while Ferreira and junior
