Inside the Flow
-The teams traded goals to start the first with a pair of Bearcat scores sandwiching Deno's first of the day to make it 2-1 in favor of Lander in the game's first five minutes, but Herman, Deno, and Glen would score to give the Chargers a 4-2 advantage at the 4:43 mark.
-The last goal of the first and the first two of the second belonged to the Bearcats to give the hosts a 5-4 lead, and though Campbell and Luke LeVette would tally, Lander got two more goals in the final three minutes of the quarter to go up 7-6 at the half.
-The teams would combine for 10 goals in the third quarter with Campbell, Jake LeVette, and Phillips scoring the first three to push the Chargers ahead 9-7, and though Campbell would score twice more in the quarter, Lander would notch five of their own to carry a 12-11 lead into the fourth.

-Welsh would record four of his 15 saves in the final minutes of regulation to keep the contest tied and force overtime.
-Both teams hit the post in the first overtime, keeping the game tied and allowing Lander to win it in the second overtime period.
