Lafayette Hill, Pa. - (9/13/2019) – Tonight's contest versus Salem International University ended in a decided tie as Chestnut Hill College battled the Tigers to a 0-0 regulation stalemate. The Griffins put six shots on goal and the Tigers offered five, but neither side was successful as senior Frank Maniscalco (Philadelphia, Pa.) and freshman Luis Felipe Ramirez (?) made all the saves they needed to in order to keep the affair scoreless. Senior midfielder Pedro Dutra (Passos, Brazil) led Chestnut Hill College's chances, putting three of his four shots on goal.
 
Salem International University (0-2-1) sailed a couple shots over the crossbar before truly testing Maniscalco at 33:49. The first Chestnut Hill College (1-1-1) shot on goal came six minutes later (39:57), when senior defenseman Stephen Finore (Broomall, Pa.) gave a go at Ramirez. Unfortunately, Finore did not find the goal, neither did Dutra, whose first shot was stopped just minutes later (41:10). In the second half, the Griffins took it right back at the Tigers as junior forward Lucas de Sá (Bahia, Brazil) and Finore respectively fired the first shots of the closing frame at 49:26 and 52:24.
