Denison's final goal of the opening 15 minutes was a score by Kay to make it 7-0 with under a minute left.

Bowdy would go on to both score and assist on Denison's two goals in the second quarter as the Big Red took a 9-2 lead into the break, and then the third quarter featured another goal by Kenney and another assist by Bowdy to make it 11-3.

After neither team scored for the final 10 minutes of the third quarter, Denison scored the first three goals of the fourth, including the second and third goals of the game by Kay and the second by Bresnahan to make it a 5-0 Big Red run overall and give the home team a double-digit lead up 14-3.

Fisher would then have a hand in each of Denison's final two goals, assisting on the third goal by Bowdy before scoring his own third goal to make it 14-6 with just under five minutes to play.

Denison outshot Wooster 62-20 overall and 38-18 on shots on goal, had a 44-15 advantage on groundballs, was a perfect 19-for-19 on clears, and held a 21-2 advantage on faceoffs.

Bowdy led the Big Red with seven total points (3 goals, 4 assists) while Fisher finished with six points (3 goals, 3 assists) and led the team with six groundballs.

Davis Cronin added five groundballs and was a perfect 11-for-11 on faceoffs while Colin MacLean was 8-for-9 and Sam Wadsworth was 2-for-3.

Defensively, both Joey Rochte and Will Filiault caused two turnovers while Archer Darrach (5-1) finished with 13 saves.
