Foryoh gave the Warriors a 1 goal cushion when he scored his 2nd goal of the match in the 25 minute, assisted by sophomore Jon Rokowski (Chippewa Valley).

Senior Chris Hall (Birmingham, England) scored just 50 seconds later with Miller getting his 2nd assist of the match. The Warriors led 3-0 at half time, out shooting GBC 12-5. Sophomore goal keeper Steven Jesionowski (Milford) had 3 saves on 5 shots for the half.
