Syracuse defeated Johns Hopkins in the championship game, 13–12. The final was a battle of #1 versus #2, with both teams coming into the finals with just one loss.
A wild, back and forth, athletic affair, the game was not decided until one final desperation shot by John Dressel with two seconds left. Matt Palumb made the stop and finished the game with 13 saves. Paul Gait had 4 goals and 2 assists for Syracuse. Johns Hopkins got the ball back for a final possession on a tremendous over the head check on Gary Gait by Dave Pietramala, followed by a mad scramble with Hopkins securing the ball with 12 seconds remaining.
