Denison had a leg up with two more wins in the conference but the Tigers were determined to out run the Big Red.

Both teams continued to press the ball hard and move through the midfield quickly. Both teams were able to get shots off but went into the half with a score of 1-1. The second half remained uneventful until 3 minutes left when Aaron Craddock scored, avoiding overtime for the Tigers. Wittenberg would end the game with a score of 2-1.
