• The Tigers opened the third quarter with three straight goals to pull ahead 8-3, but BSC would score twice after that, cutting it to 8-5, for the Panthers' final goals of the game.
• Sewanee added one more before the end of the third quarter to pull ahead 9-5, and then found the back of the net four times in the fourth quarter.
