Senior goaltender Paul Karpowich (Thunder Bay, ONT) was solid in
goal for the Clarkson University Hockey team with 32 saves, but a
couple of tough-luck goals in the third period boosted the
University of Alaska Fairbanks to a 3-1 victory over the Golden
Knights in the second round of the Kendall Classic in Anchorage on
Saturday night.
Clarkson, guided by first-year head coach Casey Jones, tied the
University of Alaska Anchorage 4-4 late Friday night in its
season-opener. The Knights make the long journey back from Alaska
to open up a four-game home stand at Cheel Arena next weekend
hosting Sacred Heart in a two-game series.
Alaska Fairbanks (1-1-0) took opening lead in the first period on a
goal tipped in by Colton Beck at 15:29.
Clarkson came back to tie it midway through the second stanza when
senior Nick Tremblay (Candiac, QUE) knocked in a rebound in off a
shot in front by sophomore Ben Sexton (Kanata, ONT) at 9:52. Senior
Louke Oakley (Whitby, ONT) also assisted.
With regulation time winding down in the third period, the Nanooks
caught a lucky break when a wide shot from the left boards
deflected off the skate of Nik Yaremchuk and past Karpowich for a
power-play goal and game-winner at 11:24.
With 52 seconds left to play, Alaska forced a Clarkson turnover
behind the net, and Beck capitalized with his second goal of the
game to seal the victory for the Nanooks.
Alaska outshot Clarkson 35-22. Karpowich posted 32 saves, including
13 stops in both the second and third periods.
The Knights were 1-of-5 on the power play while the Nanooks were
1-of-6 with the man-advantage.
