Among the more notable offensive performances for the Coastals was that of North Carolina commit Alex Trippi, who started the scoring with a goal just shy of three minutes in and finished with two goals and one assist. Fellow Tar Heel commit Sean Morris had a goal and an assist while Owen Seebold (Syracuse) had a hat trick. LSM Jacob Walthour (Syracuse) scored two. But it was strength in numbers — and perhaps the luck of the Irish — that saw the Coastals overcome an otherwise immense performance from Americans goalie Will Ramos (Albany), who finished with 12 saves. The Coastals had eight different players register a goal, with Notre Dame commits Michael Fay, Michael Drake, Jake Frane, and John Ryan Hallenbeck rounding out the Coastals scorers. Despite the scoreline, the Americans competed well, particularly at the face-off X, but couldn’t overcome a strong start from Coastal goalie Alexander Rode (Virginia), who was lights out between the pipes and finished with six saves in the first half. Matthew Schmidt (Notre Dame) also had a solid half with three saves. Luke Postiglione (Hartford), Connor Wolff (Stony Brook), and Steven Ramirez (Albany) were the scorers for the Americans.
