The teams played through a scoreless first half, but in the 52nd minute Matt Danilack scored from inside the penalty box off a deflected loose ball to put Dartmouth up 1-0.

Neither team was able to get the go-ahead goal in the first period of extra time.
In the second overtime period the Big Green won a corner kick. Robin Alnas' service to the back post was headed back to the middle of the penalty box by Jonathan Nierenberg and Omsberg was there with the finishing volley for the game-winner.
