The game was all Hernando, as the Tigers defeated the Gators 9-2 with the contest ending 10 minutes into the second half by the seven-goal mercy rule.
Jackson Hale, Tyler Starnes, Vincent Waters each scored two goals for Hernando. Lake Cormorant scored once in the first half and added another goal in the second half on a penalty kick before the game ended early.
