Post responded nearly five minutes later, as sophomore Niko Grollman took a centering pass from junior Jake Raleigh who fired the puck past Assumption goalie David Zulauf to tie the game, 1-1 on the power play. It was Grollman's sixth goal of the season, as he has scored in two straight games.

Senior Tyler Hackett would then score the Eagles second power play goal of the game, firing a shot from the corner to put Post up, 2-1 at the 9:46 mark.

However, the Greyhounds answered less than two minutes later on a goal from Dante Maribito on a power play at 11:28. Holyoke followed with the game-winner at 15:41.
