Ivan Lumbrano was in the net for the night but did not see much action as the Kingsmen defense didn't allow many shots on goal. He tallied a total of one save on the night.
The purple and gold had a total of 10 shots, three of them being on frame. Cal Tech only had a total of four shots on the night as the Kingsmen dominated the ball.
