The Golden Knights had one of those games were they out shot an opponent and dominated the opening period of play, but could not get pucks to go their way and fell to Union, 5-1.

The opening period saw the Knights out shoot the Garnet Chargers 16-4, but a Union goal at 8:26 gave them a 1-0 lead.  Anthony Romano responded quickly for the Knights at 9:07 to tie the game.  

In the middle frame, Union was able to balance out the shot totals and take advantage of some special teams situations.  Nate Hanley went off for tripping at 13:25, and on the Golden Knights power play, Carter Korpi would get a short handed tally.  Late in the period, Union would get a power play goal to go up 3-1 heading into the intermission.

In the 3rd, Union would score 3:38 into the period, on 5 minute major power play that carried over from the 2nd period.  

Clarkson would get 3 straight power plays including a 5 on 3 but were not able to pull any closer and Union would get their 3rd power play goal of the night at 15:21.

Kyle Chauvette was outstanding for Union, especially in the first period, finishing with 34 saves.  Austin Roden would finish with 19 saves between the pipes for Clarkson.

Clarkson was 0 for 6 with the power play and gave up 3 of 6 chances for Union with the man advantage.  

Next up, Clarkson will travel to Troy to face RPI, a 6-3 winner over St. Lawrence tonight.
