Group 3

St. Rose 6, No. 6 Manasquan 0

Bo Pepe scored the equalizer in the 53rd minute and Jake Petillo delivered the game-winner in the 63rd as the Crimson Knights (4-4) rallied to top the Lancers (4-2-1) and move closer to SCT knockout round qualification.

Wall would clinch a spot in the 22-team SCT field with a Manalapan win or draw vs. St. John Vianney in group play.
