Mike Da-Silva, Riley Urie, and Jack Shearer all found the back of the net, highlighting the team’s ability to generate scoring chances against a tough opponent.

Moments later, Riley Urie connected with Roshawn Panton to make it a 5-2 game, keeping the Heat within striking distance. The team continued to press, and Jack Shearer struck early in the fourth quarter off a feed from Urie, making it 6-3 and giving Harrisburg a spark.
