SCHENECTADY, N.Y. -- The 11th-ranked Princeton men's hockey team defeated Union 4-1 on Saturday afternoon at Messa Rink to complete a weekend sweep. Junior Mark Magnowski's second period goal proved to be the game winner as the Tigers won their third in a row.

Princeton outshot Union in each period and held a 45-29 shot edge at the end of the game. With its 53 shots in a win on Friday at Rensselaer, the Tigers garnered 98 shots on goal for the weekend as Princeton won its second straight 4-1 game. The Tigers sweep was its first of the Capital District teams since the 2000 season.

The Tigers snapped what was a scoreless game with 1:39 left in the first period when sophomore Sam Sabky netted his first collegiate goal. The tally came with the man advantage and was assisted by junior Dan Bartlett and Tyler Beachell. The linemates have combined for goals in each of Princeton's last three games, with each player scoring once.

The Tigers would add the eventual game winner 8:42 into the second period when Magnowski put the Tigers ahead 2-0 with his team-leading third goal of the season. The score was set up by sophomore Mike Kramer and sophomore Matt Arhontas.

Sophomore defenseman Taylor Fedun made it a 3-0 lead for Princeton when he scored on the power play at 12:28 of the third period. Senior captain Brandan Kushniruk sent him a centering pass from the corner as Fedun snuck down to the crease from his spot on the blueline. Sophomore Kevin Lohry also assisted on the goal.

Union cut the lead to two goals with 2:34 remaining on Jason Walters' third of the season but Arhontas punctuated the win when he scored into the open net with 1:53 left. Arhontas, who was on the ice killing a Princeton penalty, blocked a point shot and then went in all alone to slide the puck into the open net for his second goal in as many nights.

Princeton junior goaltender Zane Kalemba made 28 saves, including 12 in the third period, to pick up his fifth win of the season. Kalemba has now allowed a goal or less in each of his six starts this season. Corey Milan made 41 saves in the loss.

Princeton improved to 5-1-0 overall and 4-1-0 in the ECAC. The Tigers were 3-0 this week and have won their last four games. Princeton visits St. Lawrence and Clarkson this weekend.
