Marcellus Continues Goal Streak but No. 6 Bobcats Fall at Maine
10/10/2026 10:39:00 PM | Men's Ice Hockey
ORONO, ME — The Quinnipiac men's ice hockey program suffered its first loss of the 2026-27 campaign on Saturday night, dropping a 5-3 decision to the Maine Black Bears and splitting the weekend at Alfond Arena.
The Bobcats had a 3-2 advantage at the midway point of the second but the hosts scored three in a row, including an empty-net tally, to secure the back end of the two-game weekend.
Mason Marcellus and Ethan Wyttenbach continued their stellar weekends, as Marcellus scored his fourth goal in as many games to begin the campaign and Wyttenbach posted yet another multi-point night.
Jan Golicic's first collegiate goal came at the 16:16 mark of the first to tie the game and it was Marcellus' tally just 64 seconds into the second that gave the Bobcats the lead but they would be unable to find the net the rest of the way.
STATS AND NOTES
Quinnipiac heads back on the road Friday night for a matchup with Penn State. Kickoff is slated for 7 pm., Eastern in State College, Pa.
