Sept. 5, 2004 SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. -

The Dons made it 2-0, just one minute into the second half as Al Bedrossian scored off assists from Adam Bergman and Mike Varas.
Pagano netted the UMass goal to cut the lead to 2-1 at the 71:44 mark as he scored on a turnaround shot to the far side of the net. USF quickly answered as Aaron Chandler scored less than two minutes later for the 3-1 final.
In goal, Colin Burns (Newark, Del.) made six saves for UMass.
USF outshot UMass, 22-11 while taking eight corners to the Minutemen's five.
