Men's Hockey Concedes Weekend Split at Bright

* Icemen nip Big Green but fall to Catamounts, 4-3

Up until the end of the third period, the contest had been fairly normal. Vermont got on the scoreboard first after seven minutes of play only to have Harvard even things up at the 16:09 mark of the second period thanks to a power-play goal by Higdon.

Vermont, who never trailed in the contest, snatched its second goal of the game in the third period on a power-play chance. This time it was a close-range blast from the right face-off circle by Jason Hamilton which sailed past the out-stretched arm of Jonas.

Harvard junior defenseman Ben Storey responded less than a minute later for another equalizer with a rocket of his own with just under 14 minutes left in the game.

"I thought that we were just outstanding in that third period", Tomassoni said. "That may have been our best period of the year, but unfortunately we don't have a lot to show for it. Give their goaltender credit, though. He played a whale of a game".

Normally 30 saves would be enough to garner such praise. But 30 saves and a game-winning goal? In light of Vermont's offensive woes, Allen obviously deduced that if he wanted to get the job done right, he might as well do it himself.
