Game Recap

• North Central was the first to strike on Thursday as Jeremiah Zilka found the back of the net in the 15th minute to take a 1-0 lead. North Central was able to stay in the driver's seat for most of the 1st period, but Moody Bible was able to tie the game up in the 35th minute sending both teams to halftime knotted up at 1-1. The second half turned into a defensive battle as neither team could find much separation. Moody Bible looked to flip the script on the Rams in the 71st minute as they took the lead for the first time in the contest. Moody looked poised to runaway with the upset victory, but on a play in which he was knocked down in front of the goal Danny Williams was able to get to his feet and muscle up a goal in the 83rd minute to tie the game up at 2-2. The Rams completed the gutsy comeback victory when Austin Healy found the back of the net in the 8th minute to complete the 3-2 comeback victory over Moody Bible.
