Box Score

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- The Providence College men's hockey team defeated Clarkson University, 4-2, on Saturday, November 24 at PC's Schneider Arena in a non-conference contest.

The Friars (5-8-1) used a pair of first-period power-play goals from junior Jon DiSalvatore (South Windsor, Conn.) and freshman center Chris Chaput (Pawtucket, R.I.) to open a 2-0 lead in the opening 20 minutes of play. It was just the second time this season that Providence has scored first in a game.

DiSalvatore scored his ninth goal of the season when he tipped a shot from sophomore defenseman Stephen Wood (Sudbury, Mass.) past CU's Karl Mattson. Chaput beat Mattson on a breakaway and at the end of the period, Mattson was replaced in goal by Mike Walsh.

In the second period, Clarkson evened the score with a pair of goals. Chris Blight got the Golden Knights to within one goal and Randy Jones tied the contest at 2-2 when he scored on the power play.

In the final period, senior Drew Omicioli (West Warwick, R.I.) scored from Chaput and sophomore defenseman Jason Platt (Portola Valley, Calif.). Platt scored Providence's final goal off a draw in the CU end.

PC's Nolan Schaefer (Yellow Grass, Sask.) made 27 saves in the victory.

The Friars return to action on Friday, November 31 when they travel to Merrimack College.
