Provided by Brandon Lauchnor

Titans 5 @ Gamblers 4 – The New Jersey Titans beat the Garden State Gamblers in an overtime thriller. This was a very physical defensive game, and it started slowly with neither team scoring in the first period. Not even a minute into the second period, Lincoln Walters scored for the Titans. Then, with back-to-back goals from Joseph Foody and Alex Patsilevas, the Gamblers took the 2-1 lead to end the period. The third period was physical and intense. Dom Marnauza scored for the Titans to even the game. However, the Gamblers answered with back-to-back goals from Darius Malecki and Filip Piatowski. The Titans did not back down, though, as Marnauza and Walters both scored their second of the game to force overtime. In overtime, Marnauza scored for the Titans to secure a hat trick and the 5-4 win.
