The Ocean City Barons became the first PDL team to beat a USL professional squad in the 2009 tournament, winning a 3-0 decision over Crystal Palace Baltimore of the USL Second Division.
Byron Carmichael opened the scoring in the 9th minute, with an assist from Neal Melchionni. Carmichael struck again in the 34th minute on a feed from William Swetra give the Barons a 2-0 halftime lead. The game had been postponed on Tuesday due to a flooded field from heavy overnight storms.
With 12 minutes remaining, J.T. Noone left no doubt as to who the winners were with a Ryan Richter-assisted goal. Ocean City will host the Real Maryland-Monarchs next Tuesday in the Second Round.
