HOW IT HAPPENED
Pfeiffer got on the board first with a pair of first quarter goals, the first from senior Jacob Leone at 13:22 and the second from fellow senior Treven King at 12:24.

SVU would score the next three goals to close the quarter to go up 3-2.

Pfeiffer opened the second quarter at 13:07 on a goal from Caleb Connell to tie the game at 3-3.  Southern Virginia then reeled off three straight scores to go up 6-3, but Pfeiffer sophomore Quinn Becraft's score at 3:32 closed to 6-4.  SVU added a goal at 1:50, but Pfeiffer answered with 47 seconds before halftime with another goal by King, to provide the 7-5 margin at halftime.

Pfeiffer's Brayden Sokolowski scored an unassisted goal at 14:50 of the third quarter to draw to 7-6, but SVU answered again, this time with an unassisted goal at 11:44 to push their lead to 8-6. King would score again at 10:37 to again get to within one at 8-7.

SVU once again went on a three-goal spurt, this time to end the third quarter, taking the 11-7 lead into the fourth.

Falcon sophomore Nick Pekins made it 11-8 at 13:36 on an assist from Sokolowski, but SVU responded again with a pair of goals at 11:04 and 9:45 to lead 13-8.

The Falcons would mount a furious comeback, which was started by a goal from goalkeeper Matt Stocks at 4:57.  Another Becraft goal at 2:28 inched the Falcons closer to 13-10 and with 44 seconds to play, Sokolowski trimmed the lead to 13-11.

Pfeiffer would not be able to get any closer, as the Knights were able to melt the clock in earning their first USA South Championship.
