First Period

The opening period saw the Mavericks taking an early lead with a goal that set the tone for their performance. Despite several attempts by Yale's forwards like Micah Berger and James Shannon, they couldn't find the back of the net. The Bulldogs' defense, led by Rhys Bentham and Owen Forester, worked hard to contain Omaha's offensive pressure but ended up trailing as they headed into intermission.

Second Period

In the second period, both teams struggled to capitalize on their opportunities. The Bulldogs had multiple chances but were thwarted by strong goaltending from Omaha's netminder. Yale's goalie Noah Pak made crucial saves to keep his team within striking distance. However, neither team managed to alter the scoreboard during this period.

Third Period

The third period brought renewed energy from both sides. The Mavericks extended their lead with two more goals despite valiant efforts from Yale’s defensemen like Tucker Hartmann and Joose Pesonen trying to hold them off. With time winding down, Julian Frias finally broke through for Yale with a late goal that injected some hope into their comeback bid.
