These will be brief reports since I was away in Guatemala and did not attend the games
Tues 11/29 Salve Regina at home - a 6-3 win against another good non league rival - we were behind 1-0 after one - tied it up 2-2 after two and finished off with a 4-1 third period for the win - shots were even - goals by G McCarthy(2), Gimbel, Milo, Melillo and Bailey - assists M McCarthy(2), G McCarthy(2), O'Connell, Cappellano, Cleary, Melillo and Milo
Friday 12/2 at NE College (one of the top 15 rated teams) - after one no score - after two we lead 1-0 Dalton from Milo - in the third NEC goes up by one after 8 minutes of play - McCarthy (Cleary) ties it up at 16;14 and O'Connell puts us ahead at 19:17 - NEC gets a faceoff in our end and scores with 9 seconds left - into overtime a goal at 1;56 gives NEC the win - a tough game to lose after playing very well the entire game (per Coach Murphy)
Saturday back up to NH to face St. Anslems another top team - this game was never ours and we lost 7-1 - this is a tough trip on Saturday after driving following a disappointing loss on Friday nite
