The 1-1 tie remained until 6:08 into the second half when Colofranson scored his team-leading fourth marker of the year with an assist by Chris Katona (Howell/Howell) to put Stockton ahead for good.
 
The Ospreys added an insurance goal with 9:13 to play as Nocito tallied his first goal of the season with assists from Colofranson and Ian Carmelia (Mt. Holly/Rancocas Valley) for the 3-1 final score. Stockton outshot Gwynedd-Mercy 21-9 in the game, including 12-5 in the second half.
