HOW IT HAPPENED

  • The Bulldogs remained aggressive and hungry and were able to pull to within one with just under 10 minutes left in the first half.
  • The Citadel came out in the second half and appeared poised to find the equalizer, but ETSU was able to turn away each threat.
  • With just under nine minutes left in regulation, ETSU put the game away with the Bucs' third goal.
  • The Citadel outshot ETSU 12-8, but was able to put just two of those on frame as the Bus held a 5-2 advantage in shots on goal.

NOTES
