The Broncos came out firing, jumping to a 9-0 lead after the first quarter and pushing their advantage to 17-0 before Sippio finally broke through with Cobleskill's first tally late in the second. Sippio struck again just before halftime, but the Tigers still faced a steep 20-2 deficit at the break.
Cobleskill found a spark in the third quarter, going toe-to-toe with Delhi in a 3-3 frame. Baker, Martin, and Palange, who buried a man-up goal, provided the third-quarter offense. In the fourth, Palange found Baker on a nice feed to cap Cobleskill's scoring, making it 26-6 before Delhi tacked on a final goal. Both squads were held scoreless over the final five minutes.
The loss marks the end of the 2025 season for the Fighting Tigers.
