HOW IT HAPPENED AGAINST PRATT
- The Mighty Macs' offense began strong with a few shots in the opening half. After a Becker shot was saved, McKinney knocked one in to break the tie. O'Rourke had the assist. Despite Pratt seeing a shot attempt of their own in the 37th minute, the Cannoneers never made a true threat to score. At the half, Immaculata led 1-0.
- The Mighty Macs had multiple opportunities to possess the ball early in the second half, thanks to multiple Cannoneers fouls. Within nearly eight minutes of each other, Becker and Prall added to the scoring barrage. Kyle Coleman and Carlos Cano were credited with the assists, respectively. Immaculata emptied the bench toward the end of the match. Ricky Baffa took over for Luca Greppellini in goal. Immaculata dominated Pratt for a 3-0 victory.
