Men’s Ice Hockey

It’s only an exhibition game, but it looks like the Hawks have some work to do, falling 6-3 to Norwich University.

Saint Anselm’s only lead came from a power play goal from freshman Andrew Andary (Macomb, Mich). That lead was fleeting, but senior Liam O’Sullivan (North Hampton, N.H.) tied things up near the middle of the second period.

Norwich answered with three unanswered goals, with senior Chris Googins (Braintree, Mass.) providing Saint Anselm’s only answer for the rest of the contest.

The Hawks will take on another exhibition opponent, New England College, on Saturday, Oct. 26 at 4 p.m. in Sullivan Arena. Saint Anselm officially opens its 51st season as a varsity program on Friday, Nov. 1, battling Lebanon Valley at 7 p.m. on the Hilltop.

Women’s Ice Hockey

The women’s program fell to 2-2 on the year, losing 2-1 to Sacred Heart.

Sophomore Kelly Golini (Tewksbury, Mass.) scored Saint Anselm’s only goal at 4:55 in the second period.

Saint Anselm has a quick turnaround as they host Norwich in an exhibition game on Tuesday, Oct. 22 at 7 p.m.

Men’s Golf

The Saint Anselm College men’s golf team wrapped up its fall season on Sunday at the Le Moyne Invitational where they finished in 14th place out of 15 teams at Lake Shore Yacht & Country Club.

The Hawks improved by 15 shots from the first round to record a combined team score of 21-over 309. Saint Anselm ended the tournament with a total of 633.

Freshman Drew Semons (Danvers, Mass.) recorded a career-low two-under 70 in the second round. He finished the event in a tie for 43rd. Semons did not record a single bogey in his 18 holes while posting one birdie on each nine.
