Bradford struck again less than two minutes later when freshman Martin Gonzalez found him slashing through the box for the 2-0 cushion.

In the 32^nd minute, freshman Daniel Forry added to the margin when he broke free at midfield before facing a one-on-one matchup with Sterling keeper Jordan Cabrera.   Forry blasted a left footed shot past Cabrera for JBU’s third goal of the match.

Sterling managed to get on the board in the 37^th minute when Abe White connected with Johnny Chavez before the intermission.

In the second half, JBU put things out of reach when junior Misha Kolemasov scored off a header at the 71:44 mark.  Forry and senior Josh Baldwin put on the finishing touches with goals in the 75^th and 84^th minute respectively.

For the match, JBU out shot Sterling 29-13 with an 8-4 shots-on-goal advantage.  Freshman Matt Henry picked up three saves in the win.
