* The score remained 2-0 in favor of Abington through halftime.  Abington added a score early on in the second half when sophomore Louie Lare connected on a goal to make the score 3-0 in the 56th minute.  Sophomore Eljo Agolli assisted on the play for his team-leading fifth helper of the season.
 
* Freshman Arber Canole capped the scoring for the Nittany Lions as he registered the first two goals of his collegiate career.  Canole recorded his first goal in the 69th minute and then less than 10 minutes later came through with goal number two in the 79th minute.  Fellow freshman Arlin Shehu assisted on the latter goal for his first collegiate assist.
