Minseo Bae ripped a low liner that was deflected by a USM defender inside the left post to give the Polar Bears a 1-0 lead. 
• Bowdoin doubled its lead in the 66th minute when a run on the left win by Drake Byrd resulted in a perfectly-played centering service to Everett Horch. Horch chipped the ball over the head of the goaltender for his second career goal, giving the Polar Bears a 2-0 advantage.
