TOLEDO, Ohio – Senior forward scored a second-half goal for Toledo, but a late goal by Oakland gave the Golden Grizzlies a 2-1 victory over the Rockets on Sunday afternoon at Paul Hotmer Field.

After a scoreless first half, Oakland took a 1-0 lead from a penalty kick in the 51st minute in the second half. The Grizzlies' lead didn't last very long, however, as Turski tied the game 1-1 in the 56th minute. The teams played a very physical game for the remainder of the contest, but Oakland capitalized on a two-player advantage and re-took the lead on a header in the 85 minute.
