A handball was called, granting CNU a penalty kick. The Captains scored on the kick to take an early 2-0 lead, and their fortunate tally proved to be the difference in the game as Wesley fell 2-1.
Tanner Yaw made nine saves in his first career start in goal for the Wolverines. Matt Dina scored for the Wolverines, marking his first career goal. Will Mileski earned the assist on the play.
