Ephs Suffer Tough Loss Against Colby College On The Road – Williams College

Waterville, ME – The Williams College Ephs (6-8-1) played on the road against the Colby College Mules (10-4-2). Despite lots of chances, the Ephs were unable to come up with any opportunities that they would be able to full capitalize on. They walked away after 3 periods trailing by a score of 0-3.
 
The first period started off with a great first shift from Brady Welsch, Owen Stadheim, and Ziv Deener-Chodirker. The Mules were forced to respond right away in order to keep the Ephs at bay. There proceeded to be a continuous battle for momentum, the Mules taking a pair of penalties, with the Ephs out shooting the Mules in the first period.
 
Moving into the second, Williams came out flying, looking to take back possession of this game. There were great battles up and down the ice, but the Ephs were fighting to try and get one past the Mule’s goalie. There wouldn’t be any Eph’s goals, but the Mules managed to capitalize and make this game 2-0 going into the third.
 
The third period did not go Williams’ way. Despite out shooting the Mules again, there seemed to be something holding the Ephs back from getting on the board. The Ephs got a powerplay and took full advantage. There was great puck movement, but Williams still could not capitalize on their chances. The final score would be 3-0.
 
Coach Kangas had this to say after the game, “I thought there was a lot of good things we did tonight, yet Colby was able to capitalize on their chances and we didn’t. I know the team will take a lot from tonight’s game and will be ready for a very good Bowdoin team tomorrow.”
