The Quakes had played to six draws in their previous 11 road matches. Forward Quincy Amarikwa, who scored the first goal against Vancouver, said while getting at least a draw on the road has been the objective all year, the win was an uplifter late in the season. "We have been fighting really hard on the road," Amarikwa said. "There were a few road games before this one where we really felt like we should have came away with three points, but it's never easy to win on the road.
