How It Happened
 
* After a scoreless first half, Bloomsburg was the first to break through with a score.  In the 50th minute, Sammy Ames connected on a header shot to give the Huskies the game's first lead. 
 
* The Huskies' lead would be short-lived as Holy Family came back less than seven minutes later with the equalizer.  Junior Sean Touey (Rockledge, Pa./Abington) converted a header shot of his own right in front of the next after a great cross pass into the box by senior Will Stackhouse (Philadelphia, Pa./Archbishop Ryan). 
 
* The score would remain tied the rest of regulation to force an overtime period.  In overtime, the Huskies scored the game-winner in the 98th minute off another header shot this time by Salvatore Ficarotta.
 
Inside the Box Score
 
* Shots were limited in this match up as both teams combined for four shots in the first half with the Huskies holding a 3-1 edge.  Bloomsburg outshot the Tigers, 8-2, in the second half. 
 
* Senior goalkeeper Mark Tobin (Philadelphia, Pa./Roman Catholic (La Salle Univ.)) made four of his five saves in the second half for the Tigers.
 
* All three shots by the Tigers were on-target with Touey leading the team with two.  Senior Sean McCormick (Philadelphia, Pa./Father Judge) had the other shot in the game.
 
All-Time Series
Today marked the seventh meeting between Holy Family and Bloomsburg since the start of the 2001 season and the first match up since 2016.  The Tigers are now 1-5-1 versus the Huskies in the all-times series.
