The Lead: The Wesleyan University men's ice hockey team scored two goals in 24 seconds in the third period, as they came from behind to defeat Little Three rival Williams by a score of 3-2 on Saturday afternoon.

HOW IT HAPPENED:

  • The Ephs would score first as Tyler Young scored at 9:03 to give the home team the 1-0 lead. His seventh goal of the season was assisted by Roberto Cellini and David Italiano.
  • The Cardinals would tie it at one as Tyler Kobryn '20 sent a pass to Chad Malinowski '19 who got the shot past Williams' netminder Michael Pinios at 17:21.
  • The two Little Three rivals played a scoreless second period with the Ephs holding a 10-5 advantage in shots.
  • Max Fuld broke the scoreless tie 55 seconds into the third as he took an Italiano pass and put the puck past Wesleyan goaltender Geroge Blinick '19 for the 2-1 lead.
  • The Cardianls would make their comeback, scoring two goals in a 24 second span.
  • The first Wesleyan goal came at 14:20 as Cam McCusker '18 sent a pass to Theo Tydingco '18, who rifled a shot past Pinios for his third score of the year to tie the game at two. Dylan Holze '18 also notched an assist on the goal.
  • At 14:44 Chris White '19 would take the puck and put it past the glove of Pinios for the game-winner. The goal was White's first on the year, and it would seal the come-from-behind win for the Cardinals.

INSIDE THE NUMBERS:

  • Blinick earned his fifth win on the season as he made 33 saves in the game.
  • The Wesleyan penalty kill, which currently ranks tops in Division III was stellar once again, as they held Williams scoreless on two power play opportunities.
  • Malinowski is now tied for second on the team with 15 points.
