Maryville responded with their first try of the day in the 17th minute of play, with Anom sending a shot high. The Saints withstood a pair of shots by the Hounds, responding with a free kick in the 30th minute of play. That resulted in Anom's goal as he came flying into the box off the Fulnek free kick.Â
