Conor Doyle got the scoring started with the quickest goal in Red Wolves history just 90 seconds into the match to give the team a 1-0 lead that would hold throughout the first half.

Chattanooga Red Wolves SC continued to show fight and evened things at two with an Eamon Zayed header in the 56th minute.
