The Grizzlies (3-8-4, 2-3-2 HCAC) gave one of the top teams in the league a battle, but the Engineers (9-4-2, 5-1-1 HCAC) proved to be too much to handle in the game with Rose winning 3-0.

Rose upped the pressure in the final 45 minutes, getting two insurance goals with minutes apart in the 59^th and 67^th minutes, respectively.
