The Yellow Jackets tied things up just one minute into the second frame as senior Bryan Jurynec redirected a shot off the stick of sophomore Mike McMillan past Chargers goalie Cameron Talbot. Sophomore Frankie DeAngelis also earned an assist.<\/p>\n
The Chargers broke the tie at 7:18 after a goal by Andrew Coburn. Junior Joe Federoff and Brandon Roshko received assists. Sophomore Kevin Morrison made it a two-goal UAH advantage at 9:10 after centering a pass from junior Josh Murray.<\/p>\n

A goal by senior Jereme Tendler tied things up at 11:07 of the third period. After finding the puck through traffic in front, he lifted it past Talbot. McMillan and freshman T.J. Smith were credited with the assists.<\/p>\n
