HOW IT HAPPENED

- The Emerson offense went to work and powered out three more goals to seal the 4-0 win.
48": It was Han again who bumped Emerson's lead up to two. Han's initial shot was saved by Bolduc, but collected the rebound and sent the second Lions' goal in between the goalie's legs.
48": 17 seconds later, Anderson dribbled the ball through two defenders and passed the ball off to Buschara, who beat Bolduc on the far left side to push the host's lead up to three.
69": The fourth and final Emerson goal came when freshman Ivan Bruce crossed a corner from the right side that Boamah jumped above the goalie's head and headed the ball down into the bottom right.
