Wentworth, Plymouth State Skate to 2-2 Tie
BOSTON, Mass. – Junior forward Casey Shade's
(Anchorage, Alaska) goal with 58 seconds remaining in regulation
knotted the score at 2-all and despite both teams having chances in
overtime, Wentworth and Plymouth State skated to a 2-2 tie in a
non-conference game played Matthews Arena.
The visiting Panthers took a 1-0 lead at the 6:29 mark when
sophomore forward Sean Foley (Weymouth, Mass.) poked home a shot to
freshman netminder Chris Azzano's right
side. Foley was set up on the play by senior defenseman David
Rose (Haddonfield, N.J.) and sophomore defenseman Kyle Weiland
(Hamden, Conn.)
Plymouth State held an early, 7-1 shot advantage, but the Leopards
would outshoot the visitors by an 11-9 margin. Four of those
shots came on a power play midway through the period.
Wentworth had a golden opportunity to tie the game at the
five-minute mark of the middle stanza when there was a flurry of
activity in front of an open net. However, both of the
Leopards' shots were blocked by defensemen in front. The
hosts were able to even the score on junior forward Skylur Jameson's
(Long Beach, Calif.) goal at 10:52, which was assisted by freshman
defenseman Andrew
Moscardelli (Pearl River, N.Y.) and Shade.
Both teams would have chances to take the lead, but Azzano and his
counterpart, sophomore Jack Astedt (Angelholm, Sweden) stood tall
and kept the score deadloacked. However, the stalemate ended
with 1:11 left in the third period when sophomore forward Matt
Aponte (Plano, Texas) put back a rebound of his own saved shot to
give the visitors the lead.
The lead would be short-lived, however, as 13 seconds later Shade
put home the rebound of a senior defenseman Kyle Richardson
(San Jose, Calif.) shot. Both teams had a shot on goal in the
waning seconds of the period, but could not score.
In overtime, Wentworth went on a power play at the 1:22 mark and
managed to get two shots on net, in addition to having a pair of
attempts go wide and another two get blocked by PSU
defensemen. As was the case at the end of regulation, both
teams also had a shot on goal late in overtime, but neither could
put home the game-winner.
Azzano made 28 saves – including 11 in the third period
– for the 6-5-3 Leopards, while Astedt turned aside 33 shots
for the 7-1-3 Panthers.
The two teams complete their two-game series Monday night at
6:00.
