Hamilton, N.Y. (February 16) -- Senior Colin Fitzpatrick (Westwood, Mass.) scored with 14:47 remaining in the third period to lift the Saint Anselm men's ice hockey team to a 3-2 road win at Hamilton on Saturday afternoon as the Hawks run their win streak to four straight games.

Hamilton struck first at the 7:06 mark of the first period as Chris Lorenc tallied his fifth goal of the season and the Continentals took a 1-0 lead into the first intermission. John Hennessey (Westwood, Mass.) and the Hawks came out firing in the second period and knotted the game at 1-1 just 20 seconds into the middle stanza on a goal assisted on by Tom Kerwin (Whitman, Mass.). Harry Biggs and the Hamilton power play gave the hosts the lead again at 13:23 as he scored his first goal of the season for a 2-1 advantage. The Hawks enjoyed a power play of their own though in the waning seconds of the period and Pat Forshner (Natick, Mass.) tied things up at 2-2 with 24 seconds left.

The game-winning score also came on the power play as Fitzpatrick scored his eighth goal of the year, assisted by Forshner, for the one-goal victory.

Pat Gallagher (Framingham, Mass.) improved to 5-2-0 on the season with the win as he made 29 saves. Scott Hefferman made 29 stops as well in the loss.
