Milton, MA - The Curry Men's Hockey team played the rare Tuesday game, and took down the Western New England Golden Bears 6-2. The nationally ranked Colonels are now 10-4-0 on the season, and 7-2-0 in CNE play. The Golden Bears are 3-11-0 and 1-8-0.
The Colonels wasted no time at all, as Jett Otwell scored just 12 seconds into the game. But WNE answered with a power play goal just over five minutes in. Exactly four minutes later, Victor Daigneault put the Colonels back up, and they led 2-1 after the first period.
Jesse Galassi put the Colonels up 3-1 five minutes into the second, but once again WNE answered with a power play goal shortly after.
In a game that was a little closer than expected headed into the third, the Colonels made sure to leave no doubt, as they outscored the Golden Bears 3-0 in the third period. They got goals from Chance Uzzell, Taurin Haddon-Harris, and Casper Soderling.
On top of the goal scorers, both Mason Kesselring and Andrew Morton each had two assists.
