How it happened
- The Shoremen (4-10, 3-5 Centennial) got the scoring started when sophomore midfielder Mac Hale found junior attacker Luke Brennan just over a minute into the game for the first score of the afternoon, 1-0.
- Just over a minute later, Dickinson (16-0, 8-0 Centennial) swung back courtesy of a goal from Tucker Booth, assisted by Owen Porter.

- The pattern continued into the second, as senior attacker Ewan Temple grabbed a dish from Brennan and scored less than 90 seconds into the frame to push the Shoremen ahead once more, 4-3.
- The first of two second quarter runs for the Red Devils began with around 12 minutes remaining in the first half. Matt Thurston set up Porter for his first goal of the night to tie the game, with Dickinson taking the lead just over four minutes later on a pole goal from Seamus McCloskey, 5-4.
