MARLBOROUGH, Mass.-Trinity College defeated Becker College 5-3 in non-conference men's ice hockey action Saturday evening at the New England Sports Center. The win lifts the Bantams record to 9-3, while the Ice Hawks fall to 1-10-2.

Trinity got the scoring started just  4:18 into the game when  sophomore Jim Burt (Hamden, Conn.) took a pass from TJ Sherman (Chesterfield, Mo.) and slipped it through the five-hole for a power play goal.

Becker tied that game 6:29 into the second period when Gerald Owen (Chesapeake, Va.) connected with Fred Hein (North Reading, Mass.), who beat Trinity goalie Nathaniel Heilbron (West Vancouver, BC.) blocker side.

The Bantams took a 2-1 lead 3:21 into the third period when Ethan Holdaway (Glastonbury, Conn.) slipped a shoot under Hussey's right leg pad. The Ice Hawks responded 7:36 later when Fred Hein rebounded a Tyler Auricchio (Henderson, Nev.) shot, tipping it past the dive of Heibron for a power play goal.

The Ice Hawks excitement was short lived as Trinity regained the lead 1:21 later when Jackson Brewer (Newton, Mass.) netted another power play goal. Trinity went in front 4-2 with 4:32 remaining on another Brewer goal, with help from Ryan Cole (Anchorage, Alaska) and Sean Orlando (Ivyland, Pa.). With the Ice Hawks net empty, Trinity was called for high sticking, giving Becker a two man advantage with 1:09 remaining in regulation. Becker capitalized on the two man advantage when Gerald Owen drove a one-timer from Justin Erhart (St. Paul, Minn.) into the back of the Bantams net, making the score 4-3. Trinity was able to seal the victory when Ryan Cole scored an empty netter with three seconds remaining on the clock, making the final score 5-3.

Trinity goalie Nathaniel Heilbron (West Vancouver, BC.) turned away 27 Ice Hawks shots, improving his record to 3-1. Becker goalie Greg Hussey (Medford, Mass.) made 36 saves.

Becker returns to the ice tomorrow afternoon when they host Morrisville State at 3:20 p.m. Trinity returns to action on Friday, January 17 when NESCAC rival Bowdoin at 7:30 p.m.
