The game wouldn't stay even for long as the Hawks surged ahead just 6:20 later. Torino would make a run up the right flank and into the box. He put his shot to Bonnies' keeper Luke Iacobellis' left for his first collegiate tally and what would prove to be the game-winner.
           
O'Neill added to the total with less than 14 minutes to play. A headed clearance from the back from Matt Morrish (Brighton, England/St. Bede's School) sailed over the St. Bonaventure back line and sprung O'Neill on a 50-yard breakaway. He walked in alone with Iacobellis and scored past the keeper's right for his first goal of the season to put the Hawks up 3-1.
           
The Bonnies had one more shot on target which forced a save from goalkeeper Lenny Wilson (Aberdeen, Scotland/Cults Academy) with a minute and a half left in regulation. The ensuing corner was headed wide and the Hawks closed the door on the win.
