LOWELL, Mass.<\/b> — The No. 7 Massachusetts-Lowell River Hawks found little difficulty laying the hammer down on visiting American International 6-1 on Tuesday night in front of a modest crowd at the Tsongas Center.<\/p>\n

It took just 15 seconds for the River Hawks to get on the scoreboard and only a little over a minute to net the game-winner.<\/p>\n

Junior defenseman Jake Suter set up the goal that broke the ice in the opening stanza.<\/p>\n

After wasting little time getting the puck into the Yellow Jackets’ zone, Ryan McGrath got the puck back to Suter at the blue line. Suter then lofted a hard wrist shot on net that McGrath deflected past a screened Ty Reichenbach for the 1-0 lead.<\/p>\n

“Our forwards did a great job taking away the goalie’s eyes up front,” said Suter. “I don’t think [Reichenbach] saw it and it just kind of found its way in.”<\/p>\n

Just 49 seconds later, A.J. White doubled the lead with what would end up being the game-winner. After some sustained pressure in the AIC end, White corralled the puck in the slot, bobbling it slightly before firing a shot over Reichenbach’s shoulder and into the mesh.<\/p>\n

“I got kind of lucky that I got the puck right there in the slot,” said White. “I saw [Adam] Chapie right in front of the net, but I kind of bobbled it so I just threw in at the net and got lucky.”<\/p>\n

The goal was White’s first tally of the season.<\/p>\n

Terrence Wallin capped off Lowell’s three-goal first period when he jammed in a rebound off the post for his first goal of the campaign.<\/p>\n

Following a rocky first stanza, AIC coach Gary Wright opted to switch out Reichenbach for Hunter Leisner in net, but the move did little to help the Yellow Jackets’ cause.<\/p>\n

“I just thought tonight that Ty wasn’t quite as sharp as he could be,” said Wright. “We just felt we had to make the change and hopefully, stem the tide a little bit.”<\/p>\n

Goals from Derek Arnold, Chris Maniccia and Chapie sealed the deal for Lowell.<\/p>\n

Freshman forward Carson Grolla’s slap shot from the right circle accounted for AIC’s lone tally.<\/p>\n

With the victory, the River Hawks improve to 11-4-0 on the year.<\/p>\n

AIC falls to 3-8-0 overall.<\/p>\n

“Obviously, [Lowell’s] a very good team and you don’t want to be behind as quickly as we were,” said Wright. “But I thought after that, we really battled back. But generally, Lowell played very well and we had some areas of difficulty.”<\/p>\n

Lowell goaltender Doug Carr turned away 20 of 21 shots sent his way for his fifth win of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
