Notre Dame needed double overtime to get by Penn State in the semifinals. The two teams were tied 7-7 and Notre Dame won on kicks in the 5th round. Penn State went on to defeat Michigan for 3rd.

The tournament was named in honor of Terry Larrimer, one of the founding members of the Scioto Valley team. The proceeds from this inaugural event will benefit cancer research.
