Things didn’t start that well for the Engineers when the Tigers scored just 31 seconds into the contest. George Parros re-directed a wild shot by Josh Roberts, putting it just over the outstretched glove of Freshman Goaltender Nathan Marsters.

This lead didn’t last long as Junior Matt Murley, picking up where he left off the night before, took a pass from Sophomore Nolan Graham and put it through the legs of Goalie Dave Stathos. The Engineers proceeded to take the lead when Murley stole the puck and dished it to Graham. Graham then put the puck between his legs for a drop shot. This drew Stathos, and allowed Carson Butterwick to put the puck into an empty net.

The flurry of offense went on when Mikael Hammarstrom streaked down the ice on a turnover and blasted the puck which somehow found its way between the post and Stathos’ right skate. Things only got worse for Princeton.

Following Hammarstrom’s goal, Junior Jim Henkel smoked a Tiger’s defenseman as the two made a mad dash for a loose puck. Henkel then nudged the puck toward the goal. The puck went right between the legs of Stathos leading to his removal after only one period of play with the score 4-1.

In the second the Tiger’s managed to capitalize on a power play when Kirk Lamb netted a score. The Engineers answered by converting a power play of their own. Junior Defenseman Jim Vickers netted his fourth of the year, to put the Engineers up 5-2. Later, Marc Cavosie capped the scoring for the evening as he capitalized on yet another Princeton mental slip.

Coach Dan Fridgen was excited about the win, "The momentum that we built up against Yale, the comeback win, that carried us into tonight’s game." He went on to add that, "I thought we were behind the eight-ball because they scored so early in the game, and I thought we recovered well. We got some shots on goal and some of them went in and we didn’t look back from there."

With the win behind them, the Engineers could look forward to some rest as they would not play again until the holiday tourney. Coach Fridgen was upbeat about the rest of the season, and was really enthused about the continually improving play of his No. 1 line of Murley, Graham, and Butterwick. "As the season goes along they’ve really been picking up momentum. They’re feeling more comfortable with each other and they’re finding some chemistry and they’re improving and they’re a tough line to deal with."
