Summary
PORTSMOUTH, R.I. - Behind 32 saves from senior goaltender Connor Rodericks (Buzzards Bay, Mass.) the Connecticut College men's ice hockey team defeated Salve Regina University 4-1 in non-conference action Saturday evening.

Series and Streaks
The Camels remain unbeaten in the all-time series and now lead 6-0.

Three Stars of the Game

Turning Point
After trailing 1-0 at the end of the first period the Camels put up three goals on the board in the second period to assume control of the game. First freshman Brett Moccia (Lake Forest, Ill.) tipped in a shot to tie the game 1-1 then Shero scored in transition 21 seconds later to give the Camels their first lead 5:39 into the period. Later in the second the Camels scored again when an errant pass found its way into the Seahawks open net on a delayed penalty.
