The battle for New York (waged in Reno) as a nail biter.  NYAC got off to a fast start and managed to maintain a 2-3 goal lead until midway in the 2nd half when NYC finally was able to tie the score.  From then on the score bounced back and from tied to NYAC leading by 1 or 2 goals.  The closing minuted ended with NYC having a chance to tie the score, but their hopes were dashed due to a turnover with about 5 seconds left.   Final score 25-24.

West Point Black won the 3rd place match with 29-24 win over LA THC.  The MVP was NYC’s Djordje Radovanovic and the MVG was NYAC’s Danny Caparelli.
