Kyle Tyll scored the only goal of the third period to help Sacred Heart come-from-behind and defeat No. 16 Rensselaer, 5-4, in front of a crowd of 3,156 at the Houston Field House.<\/p>\n
Tyll scored 1:24 into the third period when he took a rebound of a Nick Kary shot and put it past Rensselaer goaltender Mathias Lange.<\/p>\n
The Pioneers opened the scoring 1:58 into the first period when Alexandre Parent redirected a Pierre-Luc O’Brien shot past a sliding Lange for a shorthanded marker.<\/p>\n
The Engineers scored the next three goals of the game — all on the power play. Matt Angers-Goulet picked up a rebound with Jake Luthi and Seth Klerer getting assists at the 7:30 mark of the first period. That was followed by Luthi scoring on a rebound in front after an Oren Eizenman shot. Kirk MacDonald picked up the other assist.<\/p>\n
MacDonald then scored on a deflection of a Jake Morissette shot from the point at 6:43 of the second period for a 3-1 lead. Eizenman picked up the second assist on the goal.<\/p>\n
Sacred Heart would score the next three goals in a span of 2:49 in the middle frame. Eric Giosa scored from Parent and Bear Trapp with 4:37 left in the second on the power play. O’Brien followed with a rebound goal off a Trapp shot and an Erik Boisvert pass just 1:27 later. It took 1:22 for Giosa to score another power-play goal from O’Brien and Trapp.<\/p>\n
MacDonald fired a shot that eluded Jason Smith to even the score at 4-4 headed into the second intermission. Andrei Uryadov and Eizenman picked up assists on the goal.<\/p>\n
MacDonald finished with two goals and an assist while Eizenman had three assists. Giosa tallied two goals for the Pioneers, Trapp had three assists and O’Brien had a goal and two assists.<\/p>\n
Smith made 26 saves for the win while Lange made 17 before being replaced by Jordan Alford after the game-winning goal was scored.<\/p>\n
The Pioneers (8-3-1), who have won six straight games, host Army on Tuesday, November 21.
