Berkeley Johnson scored twice and Mac Lawton had a goal. Cooper Paul assisted on two goals, and Mac Lawton, Harry Goodburn, Devin Harris and Jakub Laskovsky all had assists.
Goaltender Alistair Mukhtar stood strong in net and made 27 saves for his first varsity win.
The STORMAC powerplay scored twice and the penalty kill went three for four.
