HOW IT HAPPENED:

- Freshman Jason Lages (Edgartown, Mass./ Martha's Vineyard) opened the scoring just seven minutes into the game when the goalkeeper accidentally shot a ball off a defender. Lages picked up the ball in open field and was able to score on the open net.

- Three minutes into the second, senior Lasse Olrik corralled a rebound off teammate Nikola Popovich's shot, which was saved by Brian Murray (Camas Wash./ Camas), and Olrik tapped home the rebound for a 2-1 advantage.

- With 14 minutes left in the second half Alex Moschella (Miller Place, N.Y/ Miller Place) sent a through ball to teammate Chase Gurcan (Fort Salonga, N.Y./ Saint Anthony's), and he converted on his shot attempt to tie the game 2-2, eventually forcing overtime. 

- Just under three minutes into overtime, Trcka was able to score a breakaway goal on a beautiful through ball from Kyle Santoro (Millbury, Mass./ Millbury), just touching the ball past the charging keeper.
