The 2nd period was all Prowlers. Six minutes in, Liam Freeborn put on top shelf past Richard Shipman to even up the game at 1. Alex Johnson and Matt Graham received assists on the goal.

8 minutes later Matt Graham re-deflected a shot from the point past Shipman to make it 2-1. Freeborn had the assist.
