ROCHESTER, N.Y. – Seven different players scored for the Manhattanville College men’s hockey team as the Valiants earned a home playoff game with a 7-1 thrashing of Nazareth College in a United Collegiate Hockey Conference matchup on Friday night at Bill Gray’s Regional Iceplex.

With the victory, Manhattanville (12-7-5, 9-4-2 UCHC) can finish no lower than fourth in the UCHC standings. As a result, the Valiants will host a UCHC Tournament first round game on Wednesday as either the third or fourth seed, with the opponent still to be determined.

Seven different players scored and 14 players had at least one point for the Valiants, led by freshman Taylor Bommarito (Sterling Heights, Mich./Charlotte Rush (USPHL)) with a game- and season-high three points on a goal and two assists. Junior Oscar Arfelt (Stockholm, Sweden/Connecticut Oilers (EHL)) added a goal and an assist as well to lead a very balanced Valiant scoring attack.
