With the commencement of conference action, there were pre-season favorites that showed why they merit their poll position; there were contenders who stumbled but are getting their games going and there were teams still struggling to put all the pieces together for 60 minutes, or more, in game action. Lots of excitement everywhere so here are some of the highlights from the past weekend.<\/p>\n

CCC <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

The University of New England skated into play against conference foe Nichols and took both ends of the weekend\u2019s home-and-home series by scores of 7-2 and 2-1. Daniel Winslow scored a hat trick for the Nor\u2019easters in the Friday night romp, but things were much tighter against the Bison on Saturday. Jared Christy and Jake Fuss helped UNE to a 2-0 lead after two periods before Nichol\u2019s Gabe Temple scored a power play goal to cut the deficit in half. Billy Girard IV made sure nothing else got past him in goal for UNE and the full point weekend was completed for the Nor\u2019easters.<\/p>\n

Suffolk and Wentworth renewed acquaintances in CCC play over the weekend. On Friday night, the game went back and forth and ended regulation tied at 4-4.
