Freedom Baptist downed Suttons Bay in the semifinals on Wednesday.
Unity Christian scored both of its goals in the second half, first on a Zane Swenson score in the 54th minute and then an a Cameron Dice tally in the 79th minute, with Zach Willis drawing an assist.
Unity (23-1-2) outshot Petoskey (22-4-1) by a 9-2 margin and had a 7-1 advantage in corner kicks. Petoskey goalie Brad Lehky made five saves.
The game was longtime Northmen coach Scott Batchelor's final game on the Petoskey sidelines.
