For the first 39 minutes on Friday, UMD peppered Michigan Tech goaltender Josh Robinson with shot after shot but couldn't put the puck behind him. Tech had a 2-0 lead on first period goals by Brett Olson and Milos Gordic. At 19:04 of the second period, Justin Fontaine finally got the 'Dogs on the board, getting through the Tech defenses to bury the rebound of a Justin Faulk shot from the circle. The spark from that goal carried to the third period, when Fontaine scored again, on a shorthanded hustle, diving to the puck and sweeping it through Robinson's 5-hole as he came out to try and challenge the puck. Jack Connolly, Joe Basaraba (his first career goal), and Dan Delisle the each scored in the next 7:16 for the 'Dogs, giving them a 5-2 lead. Olson scored again for Tech at 18:11 of the third but the UMD lead was too much. UMD outshot Michigan Tech 47-17 for the game, and Tech never had more than 7 shots in any period. Wade Bergman had two assists while Jack & Mike Connolly, Justin Faulk, Mike Montgomery, Keegan Flaherty, and Mike Seidel each added a solo assist for the 'Dogs.
