After a scoreless first half of back-and-forth action, Central Connecticut held a 7-5 advantage in shots.

The Friars had an opportunity to tie the score with 17:28 remaining in the game when junior Eoin Lynch (Yarmouth, Maine) was awarded a penalty kick. Lynch kicked his penalty shot low to the right side and Central Connecticut's Andrew Sierman made a diving save to perserve the shutout. Sierman was injured with three minutes remaining in the game and was replaced by Chris Chiakpo, who was not required to make any saves in the game. Sierman finished with seven stops in the win.
