The #7 Tars of Rollins College (11-3-3, 6-1-1) fell to the Fighting Knights of Lynn University (11-5, 5-3) 1-0 in the semi-finals of the SSC Tournament. Carl Wallace led Lynn to victory. The Tars had four more corners than the Fighting Knights but were unable to overcome their 14-8 shooting deficit.

Rollins had several opportunities in the opening minutes of the game to take the lead, but were kept scoreless by a couple of great saves from Liam Bull. Lynn took advantage of the great defense and took the lead in the nineteenth minute when Hiroshi Ando found Wallace for the game-winner. Ando dribbled the ball from 20 yards out into the box, and when challenged by Rollins, split the defense with a chip pass to Wallace who pushed the ball past Rogers.
