Following a scoreless first period of play, Fitchburg State grabbed the lead midway through the middle frame as sophomore Nicklas Millhorn (Brownstown, MI) settled a feed from senior Samuel Rennick (Salisbury, MA) and junior Jeremy Maillet (Leominster, MA) and deposited a shot inside the near post for his ninth tally on the season for the 1-0 edge.
