The Rebels, riding a 3 game win streak, came in facing the 8-0 Patriots. Each team netted one before the half with Josh scoring the goal for the Rebels. During the second the teams went back and forth with the Patriots finding the back of the net followed Ali on the powerplay for the Rebels. The Patriots answered back to retake the lead then Alex tied things up again on a shot near the point. Then with just under a minute left Neal scored what looked to be the game winner but with only 16 seconds left the Patriots tied it up and sent it to overtime. OT solved nothing so the teams went to the shootout where the opposing team was able to score one while the Rebels were shut out handing them an OT loss. Jimmy and Neal both ended their nights with 2 points a piece.
