Ryan Mathis, Peter Tinaj, and Finn Sullivan all created scoring chances in the first half, but Cardinal's goalie Parker Stusek would keep the game scoreless going into halftime. 

Less than 10 minutes into the second half, Jadin Lyle would deliver the game-winning goal. Lyle would navigate past multiple St. John Fisher defenders to bury a bar-down rocket.
