Headed into their final game at Glendale College, the Rams needed a win or a tie to hold off the host Vaqueros, who trailed Victor Valley by two points and needed a win to claim the WSC South Championship. Glendale would strike early, scoring in both the 2nd and 14th minutes to take a 2-0 lead.
The Rams would rally with scores in the 25th minute and just before halftime with the game tying goal in the 40th minute by Diego Manzo to make it 2-2. After that, the Rams hung on for the final 50 minutes of action, as goal keeper Arron Herrera stopped eight shots in the contest to help preserve the title.
