Forward Dan Carney fired a wrist shot from the slot that missed the net, but kicked off the end boards to the left circle where waiting forward Kevin Vandewaeter slipped the puck across the line at 15:02. The Bucks put on a furious rush at the end of the period, but were unable to get the puck past Reid.
In the third period the Bucks continued their furious pressure, but Reid was brilliant. Reid stopped all 13 shots the Bucks fired in the frame to record the shutout. FINAL SCORE San Angelo 1, Laredo 0.
