PINE VALLEY, N.Y. — A four-goal first period and a six-goal third period paved the way for the Elmira College men’s ice hockey team to secure a 10-0 shutout win against visiting Nazareth College on Sunday evening. It marked the first win for the Soaring Eagles (2-1-1, 1-0-1 UCHC) within United Collegiate Hockey Conference (UCHC) play, while the Golden Flyers (0-2-0, 0-2-0 UCHC) remain in search of their first win of the 2020-21 campaign.
Elmira produced double-digit shots, and held Nazareth to single-digit shots, in all three periods, and finished the game with a 50-16 advantage. Both teams had six power-play chances, but the Elmira men were the only ones to covert with the extra skater, as they went 1-for-6 on the power play.
A total of 14 skaters logged points for the Soaring Eagles. Shane Haviland ’24 (2g-2a) and Jake Russo ’23 (1g-3a) paced the Purple and Gold with four points each. Shawn Kennedy ’24 added a trio of points, all on assists, while Daniel Dimon ’24 (0g-2a), Nicholas Domitrovic ’24 (2g-2a), Bailey Krawczyk ’24 (1g-1a), Amedeo Mastrangeli ’24 (0g-2a), and Larry Niland ’23 (1g-1a) added two points apiece.
