How It Happened

Over the course of the opening 45 minutes, Vassar finished with a slim 5-4 advantage in shots.

Vasilis Ganasoulis (Glen Head, NY) kept the Golden Knights off the board with a pair of first half saves.
Coming out of halftime, Duncan Keker (Oakland, CA) tried to bend a shot in from the right wing with the Clarkson goalie off his line, but the shot hit the outside of the frame eight minutes into the second frame.
Clarkson finally broke through with 2:55 left to play when Nolan Grady took a pass from Eric McKean and found his way to the top of the box and buried a shot inside the near post for the only tally of the game.
