Senior forward Aaron Froehlich scored just 15 seconds into the game unassisted, then added another with five minutes remaining in the first half assisted by Hunter Short.
Senior goalkeeper Gage Scurlock recorded his second consecutive shutout.
“It wasn’t our best performance, but we always seem to struggle in the semi’s of this tournament. I give credit to Hillsboro and their coaches, they were very organized on defense and played a good 80 minutes against us. Pacific will be tough as the hosts. We met last year in the final and it was a good game. Aaron setting the record is quite an accomplishment, we have a long way still to go in the season and he will be able to look back on it someday and be very proud. Right now we just need to focus on getting better every day as a team,” head coach Mike Howard said.
