Johnny Rogers  and wristed a shot high into the net at 9:28 of the first
period.  David Busch also assisted on the play.  The Friars had their best
scoring chance of the period with less than one minute to play.  While on
the power play,  PC's Devin Rask tooka feed from Jon DiSalvatore and fired
it past the sprawling UNH netminder Ty Conklin.  Rask's shot clanked off the

Rask's eighth goal of the season, a power play goal, assisted by Jay Leach
and Matt Libby.  Leach fired a slap shot from the point that deflected off
Conklin's pads and Rask fired home the rebound, tying the game at 1-1.  The
Wildcats regained the lead at the 10:40 mark as Garrett Stafford tallied a
power play goal, his first goal of the season.  UNH opened a two-goal lead
three minutes later, as Johnny Rogers beat Schaefer for the third time of

notched the game's final goal from Mick Mounsey, the Wildcats third of the
