PC men's hockey team beats third-ranked UNH, 7-1

The Providence College men's hockey team turned in a near-flawless performance and defeated third-ranked University of New Hampshire, 7-1, Saturday night at Schneider Arena.

PC forward Jon Rheault scored twice and added two assists and Colin McDonald, Chase Watson, Matt Taormina, Mark Fayne and Nick Mazzolini contributed a goal each. The Friars outshot the Wildcats, 51-22.

"The stakes are pretty high and we’re running out of time to seal off a playoff spot," said PC coach Tim Army. "I don’t like to talk in terms of winning [a playoff berth] because I think sometimes it takes your focus off. We needed to play as though we needed to win the game. . . we really played well for 60 minutes and we didn’t have a lot of bad patches in the game."
