In the opening quarter, Negronida found Tim Fodor with a pass from the left to right wing on a powerplay, and Fodor found the corner of the net to give the Wildkits a 1-0 lead. Moments later, Negronida scored a transition goal from the right wing to put Evanston ahead 2-0. Mundelein responded quickly, as Brandon Schawel took an entry pass from Geoff Schott and slammed a backhand into the goal to cut the lead to 2-1. Negronida scored on a shot from outside seven meters with one second left in the period to give Evanston a 3-1 advantage heading to the second quarter.

The Wildkits increased their lead to 4-1 with a powerplay goal by Magee Clegg in the second quarter, but Mundelein's Greg Peck scored two straight goals to slice the lead to 4-3 late in the first half. Evanston's Tom Doyle scored with four seconds left to make the score 5-3 in favor of Evanston at the break.

Peck started the second half with a score from the point to make the score 5-4, but Evanston responded as Negronida got his own rebound and scored his third goal to make it 6-4. Schawel scored to make it 6-5, but Negronida scored from outside seven meters to make it 7-5 later in the quarter. Peck found the net from outside seven meters to make the score 7-6 with 1:20 to go in the third period, but it would be as close as the Mustangs would get.

Evanston extended their lead with two quick goals from Negronida and Andrew Olsen in the fourth quarter to jump ahead 9-6. Peterson scored on a lob shot from the left wing to get Mundelein to within two goals at 9-7, but Paulson made a brilliant save on a two meter shot in the final minute to preserve the win for the Wildkits.
