The success on offense continued for each team prior to halftime, with the Vikings posting a 4-3 lead in the second to bring the score to 9-6 at the break. Zander O'Dwyer and Stevan Rasic found the back of the net early in the frame, followed by goals from Palmroos and Bannister. The defenses stepped up in the second half, with Occidental slowly creeping back into the game with a 2-1 third quarter advantage. A clutch goal by J. Addison at 5:18 in the fourth proved to be the difference maker as the team held off two final goals from the Tigers to complete the one-goal win.
