Hoya Highlights How It Happened
  • A tightly-contested game from start to finish, neither team led by more than two goals at any point in the game.
  • The Hoyas got on the board first in the opening frame behind Crogan's goal at the 12:59 mark but Denver responded right away with its first goal just 33 seconds later. Back-to-back goals from Georgetown gave the Blue & Gray a 3-1 lead at the 7:15 mark before the Pioneers scored with just under four minutes to play in the frame to make it 3-2.
  • Denver knotted things up at 3-3 early in the second, but consecutive goals from the Hoyas made it 5-3 with 10:47 to play before both squads traded goals in the final four minutes to give GU the 6-4 halftime lead.
  • Coming out of the break, neither team could pull away as both Denver and Georgetown posted a pair of goals in the third quarter as the Hoyas kept their two-goal lead going into the final 15 minutes of action up 8-6.
  • In the fourth, Denver outscored its guests 4-0 in the period and scored the eventual game winner in a man-up situation with 4:37 remaining.
