The Lancers opened up the scoring just four minutes in as Saverio Posa rang one off the glass on a dump in. The puck ended up bouncing into the net as Warrior goaltender Mike Morrison came out to play the puck.
 
The Warriors answered shortly after with a goal from Brett Mackie as he put one over the shoulder of Parker Van Buskirk to even the score at 1-1. Waterloo then took a 2-1 lead as Adam Bignell scored with assists from Chris Chappell and Colin Behanna. Julian Luciani evened it up for the Lancers at 2 a piece at 14:43 of the first period with assists from Spencer Pommells and Dylan Denomme.

Both teams battled hard and scored one goal each in the second period. Bradford scored his second of the game, while Chris Chappell added the Warriors marker.
