After playing to a 1-1 draw in regulation, the two teams exchanged goals in the second extra time period before German American Kickers United edged out the win in penalties. Additionally, Deptford Soccer Association provided a new tournament milestone for its program over the weekend. After securing its first-ever NJYS State Cup championship early on Sunday, the club eventually won a grand total of three Commissioners Cup titles by the end of the day.
