Andrew Peterson led the scoring with four goals and an assist. Jack Rohan had three scores and also assisted on one goal. William DelGrosso led the defense with four groundballs, and he also had one goal and one assist. Dan Ashlock made six saves in goal.

Against North Carolina State, Josh Arras led the offense with two goals and two assists, and Jordan McKay had two goals and one assist. Pettis led the team with four groundballs, and Adam Ure made six saves in goals.
