  • Erick Shoetter-Rojas stole the show once again in the 77th minute and gave the Saints a 2-1 lead with a shot that was assisted by Christian Bonilla.
  • A 2-1 win is good, but a 3-1 win is even better. Another goal scored by  Erick Shoetter-Rojas solidified the Saints victory and their path into the AEC Championship.
