FPU added its fifth goal of the afternoon with Hawrylik's second goal of the afternoon in the 70^th minute of play. Come assisted on the tally.

Junior Dan Nadel started for the Eagles in goal, and was relieved by Aeschliman, who made three saves in a little over 69 minuets of action. James Thorpe made one save in goal for the Ravens.
