traveled to World Ice in Flushing, New York to take on the newest member of the
MCHC, the Maritime
Privateers on Saturday, October 28th. Maritime scored the first goal of
the game halfway through the first period, but it was answered quickly by
Brandon Fauci. Maritime would score another goal before the period ended to
make it 2-1. In the second period, Hofstra scored 3 times, twice by Andrew
Gagnon and once by Austin Natale, and would end the second period leading the
Privateers 4-2. In the third, Maritime came out quick with constant pressure,
but Hofstra was there to stop most of it, only allowing a goal with 6 minutes
left in the game. Maritime pulled their goalie and with the net empty, Andrew
Gagnon scored the final goal to complete his hat trick, the first of his
college hockey career. Hofstra won by a score of 5-3.
The Pride
had a quick turnaround as they played Ramapo College at Sport-O-Rama in
Monsey, New York on Sunday, October 29th. In the first period, Ramapo would notch a couple of goals to
jump out to a 2-0 lead after 20 minutes played. In the second, Ramapo took
multiple penalties and gave the Pride the chance to even the score on the
powerplay. Hofstra capitalized on two goals scored by Matt McGuirk and Zack
Lamberti. Ramapo would score another goal to end the period up 3-2. Early in
the third, Andrew Gagnon remained hot and scored yet another goal to tie the
game at 3. However, the Roadrunners would be too much for the Pride on this
day, as they quickly responded with a 5-goal run to finish off Hofstra by the score
of 8-3.
