MILTON, Mass. – A fast start, featuring three first-period tallies, helped the No. 5-ranked Curry Colonels men's ice hockey team to a 4-0 win over Wentworth Institute of Technology in conference action Saturday afternoon.

With the win, the Colonels improve to 19-3-0 overall and 12-3-0 in Conference of New England play. The Leopards fall to 6-14-2 (4-10-1 CNE).
