Summary:
 
Union coach Bruce Delventhal set the team's primary goal for the
season to be a trip to the ECAC playoffs.  The Dutchmen clinched their
first-ever ECAC Playoff spot with a 3-2 win over second-place Brown
Friday night.
 
I can't add much to what Philip Johnson from Brown posted, since I
didn't see the game or even hear it on the radio.  From the paper it
sounds like Mike Gallant carried the team through some defensive
problems (52 saves!).  Union's winning goal came with less than 2
minutes left, resulting from a loose puck being hacked at in the
crease by 3 Dutchmen players, with Chris Albert finally putting it
past Geoff Finch.
 
The Dutchmen extend their winning streak to 4 and their unbeaten
streak to 6.  Union remains in 7th place with an 8-9-2 league record,
just 2 points behind Vermont.  The win also assures Union of no worse
than a .500 record in the regular season (12-9-3).  Now that they are
in the playoffs, they can shoot for home ice in the preliminary round
- or even a bye in the preliminary round with the way they've been
moving up in the standings.  They will face a tough road game at ECAC
leader Harvard tonight.  But no matter what happens tonight, Union's
weekend was already very successful.
