The North made a comeback in the 2^nd period with Lutterman’s 2^nd goal and a goal by Dan Pawlowski from Case Reserve.  The South responded with four more unanswered goals, with the game winner being scored by Tim Legath from Saint Vincent College.

The star of the 3^rd period was CUP-I goalie Tim Johnson.  He stopped an amazing 25 of 27 shots he faced in the last frame.  The North kept coming on strong but couldn’t get enough goals past Johnson.  Roy King of Pittsburgh-II scored to bring the North closer, but they couldn’t get any closer than three goals.
