For the first time, the New York Titans are on their way to the playoffs. And for the first time, the Rochester Knighthawks aren’t.

With a strong second half and an emptynet goal from Jarret Park with 33 seconds remaining that would prove to be the 12-11 winner, the Titans punched their ticket to the postseason with a third place finish.

Brendan Mundorf snapped in four goals and one assist while Pat Maddalena had five helpers and in addition to his game-winner Park added an assist and scooped 15 looseballs. Goaltender Matt Vinc made 30 stops.

For the Knighthawks, Shawn Williams had three goals and four assists, Scott Evans two and four, and Shawn Evans two and three.
