TURNING POINTS OF THE GAME
Heron scoring the first two goals of the game was the quick strike the Flash needed. After starting conference play scoring one goal in three games, the Flash put up two very early and rode the wave from there.
FLASH NUGGETS
Heron's hat trick was the first hat trick scored by a Red Flash player since Mario Mastrangelo on September 9, 2017 in a 3-0 victory over Colgate.
This game was the first time the Red Flash have scored four goals in game in the last 20 matches.
The Red Flash are now 3-1 when scoring more than one goal in a match.
