With five minutes left in the first quarter, the Bombers cut the Golden Flyers’ lead to one on a goal by sophomore attacker Will Witter assisted by Shumway.
Midway through the second quarter, junior midfielder Greg Drillock drew the Bombers even on an unassisted goal. At the end of the half, the game was tied 3–3.
When the whistle blew to start the third quarter, the Bombers came out swinging. The team outscored the Golden Flyers and took a 9–4 lead into the final quarter.
