Still the game remained scoreless until
Drake Trease blasted a shot from the top of the 18 that found the back of the net in the 53
rd minute.
The game was marred by 28 fouls and seven yellow cards.
Arnold Martinez (2-0) was not called upon to make a save in the win.
The Rams will return to SAC action on Tuesday, when they travel to Shawnee, OK, to take on Oklahoma Baptist University. That game is scheduled for a 7:00 p.m. start.
