Playing against Blue Ridge Hockey Conference (BRHC) powerhouse Radford University at the Prince William Ice Center in Dale City, it was apparent early that the game was not going to go NOVA’s way. NOVA played the first 10 minutes of the game even before Radford’s Chris Merrick scored with a blast from the point.

Eight minutes later, NOVA was on a power play but let up a fluke goal due to a bouncing puck to Radford’s Antiono Conde, and with 10 seconds remaining in the period Radford come down on NOVA on a 3 on 1 before backdooring NOVA’s goalie Daniel Titus to go up 3 to zero to end the first.
