Highlights
-1^st Half-
In the 39^th minute, UNH's Hardy placed a through-ball behind the defense to Kikosicki who cut inside to the left and finished in the right side of the net over the keeper's shoulder.

Shortly after, Kaylan Williams (Marion, Ind.) was fouled inside the box and had a penalty kick chance which was shot just high and off the cross bar with 4:40 to play in the first.

-2^nd Half-
About 20 minutes into the second half, Colgate responded with a goal of their own from Sotomayor. Lederer dished to Sotomayor 25-yards from the net which Sotomayor ripped just over the hands of Borkan in net to knot it up.

-OT 1-
UNH outlasted the first overtime with two straight blocked shots and a save by Borkan in the final six minutes of the first extra time.

-OT 2-
The Wildcats played solid defense in the final stretch as Borkan didn't have to make a save for the final eight minutes of the contest.
