The Trojans continued to build on their lead in the second half as Burgos-Yack scored off an Isaiah Packard assist early. Isaac Vandermolen got in on the scoring as he blasted a strike off a well-placed Ryan Mitchell assist.  

Burgos-Yack closed out the scoring for Fruitport as he converted a Jaxon Stone through-ball for a hat-trick.
