The Bobcats (12-6) and Sea Gulls (17-2) played to a scoreless tie for much of the contest until SU's Stephen Poorman connected on the game-winner in the 81st minute of action.

Following a foul on Frostburg, Tanner East hit a free kick through the 18-yard box to the back post where Poorman put a shot past Bobcat keeper Hassan Mostafa for the game's only tally.

Despite allowing the goal at 80:28, Mostafa kept the sixth-seeded Bobcats in the contest with diving save after diving save. He stopped eight shots in total, behind four in each half.

Salisbury finished the contest with a 17-8 advantage in shots, including a 6-1 edge in corner kicks. The Sea Gulls will host second-seeded York in the CAC Tournament Championship this Saturday.
