After a scoreless second period, Ethan Dominy netted the equalizer at 8:14 of the third, assisted by Luke Anderson, forcing overtime. Both teams were held scoreless in the extra frame, and the contest ended in shootout loss for Tech.

Indiana Tech answered late in the second when Aidan Dufort found the back of the net at 18:05 with an assist from Ryan Doucette. The Warriors carried that momentum into the third period as Ryan Doucette scored at 7:15, assisted by Ethan Dominy and Malik Ali, cutting the deficit to 4–2.
