With just twelve minutes left in the game, senior Junior Gyamfi had an amazing assist which led senior Max Jr. to be able to give the mountaineers their first goal of the game. Not even a minute later, Jr. scored Berea's second goal which was also assisted by Gyamfi. The two had two back-to-back amazing plays to be able to tie the game up with just a few minutes left of the game.
