Goalies Shine As Babson Ice Hockey Ties UMass-Dartmouth, 1-1

BOX SCORE

BABSON PARK, Mass. - UMass-Dartmouth junior goalie Jon Dryjowicz-Burek (Ludlow, Mass.) made 52 saves and Babson College senior netminder Skylar Nipps (Orlando, Fla.) finished with 25 stops as the Corsairs and Beavers played to a 1-1 overtime tie in a non-conference men's ice hockey matchup at the Babson Skating Center on Tuesday night. It was the first deadlock of the season for both teams, as UMass-Dartmouth moves to 4-1-1 and Babson's record now stands at 0-2-1.

Babson jumped in front late in the first period, as junior defenseman Casey Fazekas (Montreal, Quebec) scored a powerplay goal off assists from senior JT Balben (Wayland, Mass.) and first-year Cody Carlson (Peterborough, N.H.) at 18:23. The Beavers would then mount an impressive 24-6 shot advantage in the second session, but Dryjowicz-Burek kept the Corsairs in the game with a perfect period in net. Meanwhile, UMass-Dartmouth capitalized on one of their opportunities as junior Matt Berard (Calgary, Alberta) scored off feeds from first-years Shawn Manning (Stoughton, Mass.) and Craig Cardone (Westford, Mass.) at 6:56 to even the contest at 1-1.

UMass-Dartmouth went on the offensive in the third period, outshooting the hosts, 12-7. However, Nipps denied all 12 bids to help send the game into overtime. Both squads would mount four shots in the five-minute extra session, but both goaltenders held strong as the contest ended in a 1-1 tie.
