Price, Chisholm and Carpenter scored in a span of 64 seconds to make it 3-0 at the 13:12 mark, Donovan followed with his first marker a minute later, and Price and Chisholm each added their second tally of the afternoon to stretch the margin to 6-0 with 10:19 left in the quarter.

Price scored for the third time at 8:55 and O'Hanlon put away two in a row to cap the Beavers' nine-goal run with 29 seconds left in the first. Frankin got Emerson on the board in the closing seconds of the first and Eldredge made it 10-2 at the break with his goal late in the second before Babson opened the third quarter with seven straight tallies.

Sophomore Tom Schofield (Medfield, Mass.) converted a feed from senior John Antaya (Duxbury, Mass.) for his first goal of the season, Chisholm followed with back-to-back tallies 32 seconds apart to stretch the lead to 13-2, and Sunderland won the ensuing face-off and scored the first goal of his career. Price scored his final goal of the afternoon and Chisholm notched his fifth marker of the day with 1:02 to go in the frame to make it 18-3.

Babson, which got a point from 15 different players, outshot Emerson 64-22 and won 24-of-29 face-offs. The Beavers also finished with a 55-27 edge in ground balls and converted 20-of-22 clears.
