Box Score
Waterville Valley, N.H. - Sophomore Chris Zaremba (Colorado
Springs, Colo.) and junior Dave Rose (Haddonfield, N.J.) combined
for three goals and four assists Thursday evening as Plymouth State
University skated past Framingham State College, 6-2, in a
Massachusetts State College Athletic Conference (MASCAC) men's ice
hockey game at Waterville Valley Arena.
Zaremba scored two goals and added one assist while Rose
collected one goal and three assists to help the Panthers to their
fifth consecutive victory. PSU, which went 4-of-8 on the
power play, is now 11-6 overall and 7-3 in the MASCAC, while
Framingham State falls to 1-13-2 overall and 1-9-1 in conference
play.
Another PSU highlight to the game was provided by senior Chris
Chambers (Crofton, Md.), who picked up a pair of first-period
assists to push his career point total to 100. He now has 51
goals and 49 assists in 89 games, becoming just the eighth player
in school history to record 100 career points.
Seniors Brett Casavant (Gardner, Mass.) and Matt Lally (Natick,
Mass.) led the Rams with a power play goal and an assist each.
Zaremba and Rose each tallied power play goals for Plymouth
State to give the home team a 2-0 lead. The Panthers extended
their lead to 4-0 in the first two minutes of the second period as
junior Sean Buckley (Sagamore Beach, Mass.) and freshman Chad
Wilhelm (Plymouth, Mich.) scored goals just a minute and 35 seconds
apart.
Framingham State broke onto the scoreboard with five minutes to
go in the middle frame, but Zaremba notched his second of the game
three minutes later to make it a four-goal game again. PSU
freshman Alex Cottle (West Chester, Pa.) and Casavant traded
third-period goals to round out the scoring.
PSU finished with a 40-30 advantage in shots on goal.
Freshman Jack Astedt (Angelholm, Sweden) made 28 saves to earn the
victory in the PSU goal.
Plymouth State will look for its sixth in a row Saturday with a
key MASCAC game at Fitchburg State (4:00 p.m.). Framingham
State returns home to begin a four-game home stand on Saturday
against UMass Dartmouth (2:30 p.m.)
