Geneseo had a good chance in the 15th minute when Josh McIntosh and Matt D/Amico worked the give and go play with ball ending with D'Amico. His shot from 15 yards out was blocked away by the Tigers defense.

With time running out in the first half, Geneseo was whistled for a foul inside its own penalty area. RIT's Dean Kouroupas (Ridgefield, CT/Ridgefield) took the shot, but again, Medd was there to make the diving save. Dakota Kegler (Pavilion, NY/Pavilion) had a chance when the rebound came right to him, but his shot was blocked by Medd to keep the game scoreless at halftime.

DeFeo had a good chance in the second half, but his shot 56th minute from a sharp angle was saved by Medd.

Geneseo's best chance came with about eight minutes before full time when Bryan Wager beat his defender and fired a shot on net. The rebound came to Junsei Ro. He appeared to score, but was just off-side, negating the goal.

In the overtime Gene Sicoli (Commack, NY/Commack) had a shot from 10 yards out that looked to be headed for the top left corner, but it hit off the cross-bar and away. Tyler Hatch (Concord, NH/Tilton School) took a shot off the rebound, but put it over the net.
