CC Rallies to Edge Elizabethtown in OT

Box Score     


Aaron Maslow struck for an unassisted goal with 57 seconds remaining in the first overtime to give the Colorado College men's lacrosse team a heart-stopping 7-6 victory at Elizabethtown College on Friday afternoon.
 
Maslow ran a two-man play with fellow sophomore midfielder Tyler Borko, but when the Blue Jay defense denied the first option, Maslow came off a pick on the right side and whistled a shot past sophomore goaltender Tom Mahoney into the top right corner.
 
Elizabethtown built a 6-3 cushion with 13:52 remaining in the game and looked to be command after Mike Scafano and Mike DiGenova scored 70 seconds apart. Scafano struck for his team-leading second tally of the game with just two seconds to play in the third quarter, and then DiGenova gave the Blue Jays their largest lead 1:08 into the fourth.
 
Senior attacker Robbie Stern ignited the Tiger rally when he put a bouncing shot just under the crossbar with 10:57 to play, and then junior midfielder Daniel Lunghamer, who hit the crossbar four minutes earlier, cut CC's deficit to 6-5 with an unassisted goal at the 3:16 mark.
 
After sophomore Ben Schwaeber won the ensuing faceoff, Maslow leveled the score with an unassisted tally with 2:02 remaining.
 
Elizabethtown had a chance to win the game during the final minute, but Andrew Harwood stopped DiGenova's blast from the right wing for one of his 15 saves. The sophomore goaltender stopped double-digit shots for the seventh time this season.
 
Both goaltenders came up big early in the extra session. Harwood turned aside Michael Hofstedt's effort 16 seconds into overtime, and then Mahoney stopped a shot by freshman attackman Boe Gold 34 seconds later.
 
Senior defender Riley Hoffman caused a turnover by Andrew Watts with 1:22 left in overtime to give Colorado College their final possession.     
 
Maslow's game winner extended CC's winning streak to 11 games, the longest under head coach Sean Woods. The Tigers also are 4-0 in overtime since Woods took control of the program in 2012.
 
Schwaeber won seven of nine faceoffs to help Colorado College finish with a 10-6 advantage.
 
CC also finished with a 27-24 edge in ground balls, with Parker Woo leading all players with five.
 
Mahoney was spectacular in goal, stopping 20 shots for the Blue Jays.
 
Colorado College, which improved to 11-1, wraps up its two-game swing on the East Coast on Sunday at New Jersey's Montclair State University.
