The Warriors scoring started in the 27th minute, when a shot off the post found Juri Schlingmann who scored the first of his two on the night.
His second goal would come in the 61st minute before he assisted on an 84th-minute tally.

- Trevor Harrison also recorded a season-high with four shots on the game.
QUOTES FROM THE SEAWOLVES
"I did not think we started very well. We had the game on the weekend, which had a lot of emotion in it with it being a conference game. The performance just wasn't good enough, tonight. We tried to rotate some guys around, get fresher legs but the energy wasn't there in the first half. I thought we did a much better job in the second half but you cannot play 45 minutes of a game and expect to get a win" - head coach
Ryan Anatol.
