Mario Florio and Trip Gaston each scored a goal in the opening quarter as well, giving LFC a 4-0 lead entering the second period. They would add three more goals in that frame, including two by Florio, giving them a 7-0 halftime advantage.

The Foresters added four more goals in the third, including two more from Florio, before Beloit got on the board, with Liam Walker doing the honors on an assist from Jordan Rice. Lake Forest scored three more times to cap the scoring in the fourth, including Florio's sixth and seventh goals of the game.

Andrew Widlar saved four shots for the Foresters, while playing all 60 minutes in goal. Beloit recorded 19 saves combined between Eric Seo and Cole Conway. Seo finished with 14 saves in 45 minutes of action.
