In the second half, Old Dominion added a second goal in the 57th minute as Edson Elcock scored on an assist from Ado Fazlic. Cvilikas closed out the scoring in the 87th minute when he scored his second goal of the game on an assist from goalkeeper John Connelly.

Virginia will return to ACC action on Saturday, as the Cavaliers visit conference newcomer Boston College.
