Around the ECAC: Men's Hockey Clinches Home Ice

Union finished the weekend with a 2-2 tie against last-place Brown and its 3-2 win over the Crimson.

In the Friday night game against Brown, to the shock of the Dutchmen and about 1700 fans, the Bears evened the score just as the third period expired and held onto the tie.

The win over Harvard was the Dutchmen's last home appearance for the season and gave Union the rank of ninth in the ECAC, ahead of Vermont by two points. Union goes on the road this weekend to play Colgate and Cornell.

Vermont (11-15-2, 7-11-2) lost both of its ECAC games this weekend against Yale and Princeton. In the game against the Elis, freshman forward Jeff Miles scored a goal and assisted on another and senior defender Mike Torney scored a goal and had two assists in this high-scoring affair.

Sophomore goaltender Shawn Conschafter came in for senior Andrew Allen halfway through the game and recorded the loss despite only allowing two goals.

In the loss to the Tigers, junior forward Graham Mink scored unassisted in the second period and then Princeton came back with a goal in the third period to put the game into overtime. The Tigers scored the game-winning goal to hand Vermont its second loss and the tenth spot in the ECAC.

The Catamounts are home this weekend, but are facing a difficult pair of games against Clarkson and St. Lawrence.
