Tigers Battle #12 Arizona State to 2-2 Draw

Danny Weight and Logan Will scored and Kaidan Mbereko had 34 saves for Colorado College Friday night as the Tigers and 12th-ranked Arizona State tied 2-2 at Ed Robson Arena.
 
Following a scoreless, five-minute overtime period, Arizona State (10-3-2) scored once in the three-player shootout, while the Tigers (7-5-1) were unable to score.
 
Weight opened the scoring with his first goal of the season at the 7:38 mark of the first period. Jack Millar's shot from the right point was tipped in front by Stanley Cooley and saved by TJ Semptimphelter, but Weight was on the doorstep and snuck a shot past the ASU goalie.
 
The Sun Devils battled back with a pair of goals in the middle frame. Benji Ekerle completed a 2-on-1 rush with Kyle Smolen and beat Mbereko at 2:41 of the period, then Tyler Gratton pounded home a rebound shot on the power play after Mbereko stopped a shot by Jackson Neidermayer from the slot.
 
After getting outshot 32-21 in the first 40 minutes, the Tigers clamped down defensively, allowing just four shots in the third period and overtime combined.
 
Will evened the score 2:18 into the third period with an outstanding hustle play. Max Burkholder's shot from the point was deflected by Ryan Beck in front. Semptimphelter got a piece of it and the puck trickled towards the goal line, where Will got a stick on it for his third goal of the season.
 
The Tigers killed off a roughing penalty late in the third against Gleb Veremyev to force overtime, where the Tigers had some good looks, including a shot by Noah Laba from the slot the clanged off the right post with 50 seconds remaining.
 
Evan Werner also squarely hit the pipe on CC's first attempt in the shootout after Mbereko made a save on Matthew Kopperud. Kyle Smolen scored on ASU's second attempt, while Semptimphelter saved shots from Beck and Will to seal the shootout for the Sun Devils.
 
The teams will battle again on Saturday, Dec. 2, at Robson Arena, beginning at 6 p.m.
