On Sunday, the 5'7" defenseman broke a 1-1 tie with just 10.9 seconds remaining in regulation to give the U18s a 2-1 win against Omaha.  Fensore collected a Jack Hughes pass in the left circle, hesitated as a defender slid by and beat fellow 2019 recruit Vinnie Purpura, high to the glove side. Purpura had stopped 34 of 36 shots.
