Cameron Casey found the equalizer for Northwest in the 60th minute after a perfect cross from Armando Barron into the box, starting a furious 7-minute stretch for the Rangers.

Karim Mueller scored the eventual game-winner in the 66th minute for his first goal of the season and Jaylen Harvey added his second goal of the season just 2:08 later off a double assisted effort from Barron and Jacob King.
