PRINCETON -- Junior Dan
Bartlett scored two goals on a night when five Tigers recorded two
points to lead the eighth-ranked Princeton men's hockey team to a
5-2 win over 17th-ranked Minnesota State at Hobey Baker Rink.
After jumping to a 3-0 lead, the Tigers watched as the Mavericks
cut the lead to a goal when Geoff Irwin scored a shorthanded goal
late in the second period and Mike Louwerse scored on the power
play three minutes into the second period. The Tigers rallied back
from the Maverick run however, and scored two goals in a 58-second
span to regain the three-goal margin and hold on for the win.
Bartlett scored at 5:44 of the third period as he ripped a shot
past the outstretched glove of Minnesota State goaltender Mike
Zacharias to put Princeton ahead 4-2 and senior Brett
Wilson scored on the power play less than a minute later to reach
the final 5-2 margin. Sophomores Matt
Godlewski and Sam
Sabky assisted on Bartlett's goal, while defensemen Jody
Pederson and Taylor
Fedun got the helpers on Wilson's power-play marker.
The Tigers scored the game's first goal and never trailed as
Bartlett put Princeton ahead 1-0 at 14:51 of the first period when
he gained the puck behind the net and skated in front to score on
the short side through a screen. Sabky and Godlewski got the
assists on the goal.
Princeton built its lead to 3-0 with two power-play goals early in
the second period. Pederson netted his second of the year at 1:55
when Wilson hit him with a pass as Pederson cheated to the back
door from his spot at the point. Freshman Marc
Hagel also assisted on the goal. Freshman Derrick
Pallis made it 3-0 at 4:31 when his blast from the point beat
Zacharias top shelf. Senior Brandan
Kushniruk and sophomore Kevin
Lohry got assists.
Junior goaltender Zane
Kalemba made 31 saves for the win while Zacharias stopped 37. Each
team had seven power-play chances, with Princeton cashing in on
three attempts and Minnesota State on one.
The Tigers improved to 11-2-0 on the season and continue their
homestand tomorrow night against Nebraska-Omaha.
