Sophomore Jose Rodriguez took the free kick and slipped a shot just inside the left post past a diving Jorn Hocter. 
 
Less than two minutes later, junior Randy Putnam corralled a loose back inside the 18 and fired a right foot towards the right corner of the net for Frostburg's second goal and a 2-1 lead.
