Here's the link to Ken Schott's Sunday Gazette story about the second
half of Union's 4-point weekend:

The official crowd was actually a bit smaller than Friday night's, but
it seemed like a bigger crowd.  We can be sure the building will sell
out next Saturday when RPI comes to visit.

It was good to see a game with a more normal amount of time on special
teams.  We had the same referee (Jack Dunn) as Friday night, but only
5 penalties were called on each team.  Union's penalty kill stayed
hot, killing all 5 Clarkson power plays on Saturday, and 16 of 17 on
the weekend.
