  In their first game, Aquinas was the 5-4 winner and so fans for both teams expected a good, close game. Such was not the case however, as McQuaid Jesuit took a 6-1 half time lead and scored six goals in the third to finished with a 13-5 win at home. The Little Irish had trouble clearing throughout the game and the McQuaid Jesuit defense was solid and saw numerous take aways from Alex Caton and Christian Cavanaugh.

After the half time break, Aquinas scored first on an unassisted goal by Richie Zajac at 6:58. The Knights answered with five goals in a row. The first goal was credited to Tyler Rubio ("In-Home") when Aquinas goalie Jason LaShomb lost control of the ball and let it fall into the net. That was followed by Andrew Foster (from Farchione), Farchione (unassisted), Hanna (from Farchione) and Farchione alone at 3:10. David Schmandt scored for Aquinas with 0:28 left in the third, but Hanna responded on the following faceoff with an assist from Scott Rubino. The quarter ended with McQuaid Jesuit up 12-3.
