Game 1 – Florida National 2, Carolina 1 (Thursday, Oct. 9)

Carolina battled hard against a strong Florida National side but came up just short. After falling behind 1–0 in the first half, the Bruins conceded another goal early in the second before junior forward Will McCamley broke through in the 83rd minute with his third goal of the season. Despite outshooting the Conquistadors 10–9 and earning 12 corner kicks to none, Carolina was unable to find the equalizer late in the match.
The Bruins moved to 4–3–1 and 0-1 on the season.
