Alex McQuinn opened the scoring on a one-timer off a faceoff, Jeff Keith scored 2 minutes later on a rebound from goaltender Darcy Baskin. Adam Sherwood scored on a lucky bounce that saw Baskin make a shoulder save then have the puck lob up into the air and trickel in behind him and bounce over the goal line. Scott Sherwood came in opposite with and snapped one short side to collect the forth of the game and period.

Sussex got on the board in the second period when Colton O'Donnell bounce on a rebound in a scramble in front. They went into the intermission 4-1, which happened to be the same score at the same point in game one where Sussex scored 3 to tie the game.

However this time there wasn't any comeback as Midland tightened up defensively and kept Sussex from generating many chances. Game 1 hero Chris Gray scored late in the period to finish the game with a 5-1 score.
