Brooms replaced sticks Saturday night at Starr Rink as the men’s hockey team beat Cornell for a weekend sweep, the first time the Raiders have achieved that since the 2003-04 season
The magical winter cleaning unfolded at a jam-packed Starr Rink, where fans saw the Raiders beat the Big Red 5-3. On Friday night at Lynah Rink Colgate had beaten Cornell 2-1.
“I’m so proud of what they just did,” Raiders coach Don Vaughan told The Post-Standard.
Vaughan’s squad had just come back from a two-goal deficit entering the third period, scoring four goals in the period to secure the win.
Raiders forward Austin Smith scored twice, including a shorthanded goal, to give him 26 on the season, the most in Division I hockey.
