After spotting the Tigers a 2-0 lead in the first period, Bentley roared back with four consecutive goals and then withstood a late RIT rally for the road victory.
RIT started off in good shape when Nick Bruce and Adam Brubacher scored for a 2-0 lead through one. But then Connor Brassard, Jonathan Desbiens, Jake Kauppila, and Desbiens again all scored for a 4-2 Falcons lead.
The Tigers made it 4-3 when Erik Brown scored with 1:04 left.
