Potsdam, N.Y. – Junior right wing Chris Line (Essex
Junction, VT) scored one goal and one assist to lead No. 11-ranked
Clarkson to a 3-2 win over Colgate before 2,966 fans at Cheel Arena

clinched home-ice for the upcoming ECAC playoffs with a 12-5-2

Clarkson jumped out to a quick 1-0 lead just 1:51 into the first

the shoulder of Colgate freshman netminder David Cann (Brampton, ONT),
who never saw the shot. The Red Raiders got it back on the
power-play at 5:05, stopping the Knights’
string of successful penalty kills at 28.
One of the top scoring defensemen in the ECAC, senior Cory Murphy
(Kanata, ONT) snapped a wrist shot from the slot through traffic for
his seventh-goal of the season to tie the game.
The Knights struck again early in the second on junior David
Evans’(Sand Lake, NY) 10th goal of the season at 1:31. Evans took
a pass from Line in the left circle and fired a low shot just inside
the near post for his sixth goal in the past five games to put
Clarkson ahead 2-1.
Senior Murray Kuntz (Ottawa, ONT) gave Clarkson a 3-1 lead when
he one-timed a pass from freshman Jean Desrochers (Dalhousie, QUE)
in the left circle for for a power-play goal at 11:04 of the third.
The Red Raiders made it a one-goal game on junior Etienne Morin’s
(Levis, QUE) goal at 14:09 beating Walsh one-on-one after Sean Nolan
(Dorchester, Ont.) threaded a pass to Morin who skated through
Clarkson's defense.
The Knights outshot the Red Raiders 28-21. Sophomore Mike Walsh
(Downingtown, PA) posted 18 saves to gain his 12th win of the season
in the Clarkson goal. Cann made 26 stops for the Colgate (9-18-4,
