With the win, Wilkes ended the regular-season with a 11-4-3 overall record while standing 5-1-1 in Freedom Conference play. King's, meanwhile, saw its season end at 4-12-1 and 1-6.

After a scoreless first half, Wilkes pushed across what proved the game-winning goal when Fissel converted a one-touch pass from the left wing.
