HAMILTON, NY — The Quinnipiac men's ice hockey team capped off an opening-weekend ECAC Hockey road sweep on Saturday night, defeating Colgate 4-3 in overtime at the Class of 1965 Arena. With the win, Rand Pecknold now has 700 as a head coach, currently in his 33rd season with the Bobcats.
Elliott Groenewold scored the game-winning goal just 18 seconds into 3-on-3 overtime to lift the Bobcats after Colgate mounted a late third-period rally.
Markus Vidicek led the offensive attack for Quinnipiac, recording a multi-goal game with a second-period strike and a power-play tally in the third.
Ethan Wyttenbach extended the Bobcat lead early in the third period off passes from Antonin Verreault and Jack Stockfish before Colgate pulled even with three late goals.
Rorke Applebee stopped 19 of 22 shots between the pipes for the Bobcats.
STATS AND NOTES
UP NEXT
The Bobcats return home to M&T Bank Arena next weekend to continue ECAC Hockey play against Dartmouth on Friday night.
The game is slated for 7 PM on ESPN+.
