With only a single league point separating the two teams coming into the game, Clarkson game from down 3-2 entering the third to leaving Harvard with a 4-3 win.
Like last night, the Knights gave up the lead early but answered right back when
Anthony Romano tipped a
Noah Beck point shot. Harvard took a 2-1 lead but again the Knight scored quickly on the power play to erase the lead. Romano got his second from
Jack Jacome and
Noah Beck. Â
In the second period Harvard got the lone tally and lead 3-2 going into the final 20 minutes. Clarkson came out with heavy pressure and sustained for nearly 12 minutes until finallyÂ
Nick Campoli was able to break thru to tie the game on a tip of
Luke Mobley's shot. Just minutes later on the rush,
Alex Campbell shot and
Mathieu Gosselin was able to knock in the rebound to put the Knights up 4-3 with a little over 5 minutes to play. Harvard pulled their goalie off a time out with 2:00 minutes plus and the puck remained inside the Clarkson zone but the Knights held firm and were able to collect the 3 points. Â
Jake Mucitelli made 23 saves for his second win of the season.
Clarkson is now firmly in 2nd place in the ECAC only 3 points behind league leading Quinnipiac. Clarkson will face travel partner, St. Lawrence, this weekend, Friday at Cheel and Saturday at Appleton. Â
