Inside The Game
  • The game opened with a goal from LSM Ryan Leonard on an electric fast break. 
  • The second and final goal of the quarter came in a similar fashion, except Ryan Leonard was feeding this time to Gavin Waddell. 
  • On defense, the guys only allowed one goal and were forcing the LMU offense to turn the ball over all day. 
  • The score after the first quarter was 2-1 ACU. 
  • In the second quarter, it was very similar to the first. 
  • Both teams struggled a little bit on offense, and there were lots of turnovers. 
  • Nevertheless, Kellen Haigh balled out in this quarter, scoring both of ACU's two goals. 
  • On defense, there were two goals allowed, but Logan Malone, Brody Tkachyk, and Ryan Leonard were all dominant in forcing turnovers.
  • The score was 4-3 ACU at halftime. 
  • The second half would look a little different offensively, with Denver Farlett out, Blake Smith stepped in to play attack and ended up finding an assist on a nice feed to Gavin Waddell. 
  • The offense would not score again, but the defense would continue to dominate, only allowing one goal, led by my freshman goalie, Connor Jensen. 
  • The score after the third quarter was 5-4 ACU.
  • Kellen Haigh found his third goal of the day, followed by a pair of goals from Tristan Watters, both assisted by Hayden Wegner. 
  • On defense, they would keep LMU scoreless for the whole quarter, not allowing them to take hardly any shots and finishing the game with 17 caused turnovers as a team. 
  • ACU won 8-4.
