The men got four goals from four different players in a 4-2 win. Luke Osborne, Dylan Compton, and Bruno Idzan helped the Badgers build a 3-0 lead after two. The Colonials fought back with a power play goal early in the 3rd, but Finn Brink would score midway through the frame to put the game out of reach for the visitors.
Goaltender Alexis Cournoyer made 16 saves.
