Freshman midfielder Jose Solis-Flores (Westfield, Ind./ Westfield) made it a 2-0 Yellow Jacket lead when scored BW's second goal of the match and his first collegiate goal at the 63:06 mark. Solis-Flores' goal was kicked into the bottom right corner of the net. Senior forward Cody Smith (Brunswick) was credited on the assist, his first of the campaign.

In goal, Asbury, now 3-5 overall, faced four Defiance shots, including two on-goal, and made a pair of saves en route to his first career collegiate shutout.
In the game, BW outshot Defiance, 15-4, and had 10 corner kicks compared to DU's four.
