Six minutes later, Dan Stryffeler added to his season total to pull the Koalas ahead 4-0, but Toccoa finally broke through thanks to a goal on a penalty shot. 

Jimmy Yancey netted his second goal of the night to close out the first half, while Aedan Bowers recorded the second half's only goal on a penalty shot of his own.
