The Panthers honored their two seniors Stephan Minyono and Brett Cummins before the match. Cummins finished the match with one shot on goal and Minyono had a couple of good opportunities that just didn't go his way.

"It was nice to see Stephan and Brett get honored tonight, they really played hard in their final match and we wish them the best of luck in the future."

Wofford got on the board first in the 13th minute when Kentrel Owens found Yakov Rubinchik who scored his second goal of the season beating Panthers' goalkeeper Vincent Foermer to give the Terriers the 1-0 advantage.

Freshman goalkeeper Foermer finished the match with five saves to finish his first year in goal with 75 saves.
