Despite the efforts of goaltender Ryan Williams, who stopped 51 shots, the Bowdoin Polar Bears defeated the Massachusetts-Dartmouth Corsairs Wednesday night in the first round of the NCAA D-III Tournament, 5-2. The Polar Bears set a new school mark for victories with the win, with 23, and move on to play Utica Saturday night in Utica.<\/p>\n
Bowdoin got going early, firing the first 17 shots of the game, and got the first goal on a power play on a Jay Livermore shot from the point at 9:21.<\/p>\n
The Corsairs tied it early in the second when a shot by William Colclough rebounded to Evangelos Stefanou, who scored at 6:19. However, just 3:21 later, Dylan Shamburger picked up a rebound of a shot by Livermore and gave Bowdoin the lead back.<\/p>\n
The Corsairs drew even again at 14:32 when Casey Skolnik picked up a rebound in the slot and backhanded it home. However, the Corsairs could not hold the Polar Bears back, as Bowdoin notched its second power-play goal of the game on a Kyle Lockwood shot from the left circle with only 25 seconds left in the period.<\/p>\n
At just 1:18 of the third, Bowdoin got its first two-goal lead of the night when John McGinnis flipped a shot under the crossbar. Al Milley scored at 7:53 off a faceoff won by Colin Downey to seal the game for Bowdoin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
