ten Vaanholt struck again to give Elmira its fourth one-goal lead of the game early in the third period. The Green and White went on the power play at the 6:14 mark, but the Soaring Eagles defense blocked four shots and first-year goaltender Sandro Aeschlimann (Zaziwil, Switzerland) made three saves to maintain their advantage. The Beavers killed off a late slashing penalty, but the hosts tacked on an empty net tally with 1:51 remaining for the final margin.

Senior Jamie Murray (Scituate, Mass.) stopped 21 shots for Babson, while Aeschlimann made 38 saves for Elmira.

The Beavers, who went 0-for-4 on the power play, finished with a 41-26 edge in shots. The Soaring Eagles went 1-for-5 on the power play.
