Man-Advantage Markers Propel Ice Hockey To 4-2 Win At Southern Maine

GORHAM, Maine --  Senior Dillon Radin's (Long Beach, N.Y.) power play goal with 5:35 remaining proved to be the game-winner, as UMass Dartmouth used three third period markers to notch a 4-2 non-league college ice hockey victory over Southern Maine Saturday afternoon at the USM Ice Arena.
 
Man-advantage prowess proved to be the difference for the visiting Corsairs (1-0) in their season opener, as freshman Trevor Cear's (Jackson, N.J.) first collegiate goal on the power play gave UMass Dartmouth an early lead 6:56 into the contest.  That score held up until midway through the second stanza when the host Huskies (0-2) used tallies from junior Matt Fuller (Mirro Lake, N.H.) and freshman Antoine Gignac (Quebec City, Que.) in a seven-minute span to take a 2-1 edge after 40 minutes of action, but the visitors evened matters 8:48 into the final stanza on junior Jimmy Pelton's (Syracuse, N.Y.) power play marker.
 
Radin provided the heroics as the Corsairs were on a 5-on-3 man-advantage, as he converted feeds from Cear and sophomore Jake Maynard (St. John, Ind.) on the game-winner.  Senior Kai Kapossy (Fort Lauderdale, Fla.) provided an insurance goal with 2:48 remaining in the contest that helped seal UMass Dartmouth's first season-opening triumph in five years.
 
Radin, Kapossy and Cear each finished with a pair of points in the win for the Corsairs, who also received an assist off the stick of sophomore Justin Weinbrenner (Allison Park, Pa.).  Sophomore Daniel Davidson (Surrey, B.C.) earned the win in goal with a 22-save effort for UMass Dartmouth, which held a 35-24 advantage in shots on goal for the afternoon.
 
Juniors Adam Withers (Kenora, Ont.) and Tyler Gardiner (Watertown, Mass.) registered assists in the setback for Southern Maine, which received 31 stops and an assist from sophomore Gabriel Couture (Boucherville, Que.).  The game marked the first meeting between the Corsairs and Huskies since December 10, 2005.
 
UMass Dartmouth travels to Winchendon, Mass. on Thursday afternoon for the first of a two-game non-league set with Franklin Pierce that faces off at 4:00 pm, while Southern Maine hosts Becker in a non-league clash on Tuesday afternoon at the USM Ice Arena that also faces off at 5:00 pm.
