Turning Point
The turning point in tonight's contest was the closing seven minutes of play as Keiser found its groove and stunned the Mobile Rams and their fans.

The Seahawks tied the contest in the 87^th minute when Blixt's free kick slipped away from Duarte and trickled into the back of the net. With all of the momentum, the Seahawks continued to press and were granted a penalty kick in the 88^th minute of play. Blomqvist stayed poised, ripping the shot into the right side of the frame to seal the victory for Keiser.
