Ryan Swain is back after missing two games due to injuries and a suspension.

Finally Webber scores to tie the game at 1-1. The offense has looked very sloppy in the first five minutes. DeMaio dropped a pass on an EMO now Constantinides moves on the face-off. HIs first violation.

McNamar a poor pass on the clear trying to get the ball to Stewart. Tobin intercepts the pass (he's 5-7?) and scores. 2-1 UMass.

Towson answers with a Jon Bender goal with 7:43 unassisted. Now 2-2.

DeMaio goes right and shoots it lefty. Good touch and now it's 3-2.

DeMaio again off an incredible ground ball from Austin Stewart. DeMaio made about 3 fakes and shot the ball. Now 4-2 Tigers.

Now Berkeley with a leap at the crease and scores to make it 5-2. Timeout UMass with 5:21 left in the first quarter. MC winning four straight face-offs helps.

A Berkeley bullet from about 10 yards. Now 6-2 after a f/o violation from UMass.
