THROGGS NECK, N.Y. (Oct. 26, 2009) – The Maritime hockey team lost to first-place Fordham, 8-1, on Saturday at the Parkwood Ice Rink in Great Neck, N.Y., before rebounding to defeat the County College of Morris, 6-3, at the Mennen Sports Arena in Morrisville, N.J. on Sunday. With the split, the Privateers improve to 2-2 on the season (1-2 in intra-divisional games), while the Rams improve to 5-0 and the Titans fall to 1-1.

 

In the 6-3 win on Sunday, sophomore A.J. Noeldechen (Washingtonville, N.Y./Washingtonville) got things started for Maritime, banging in a rebound on the power play. Senior Keith Fricke (White Plains, NY/White Plains) later scored for the Privateers by stuffing home a rebound after a breakaway by freshman Dan Tyx.

 

Sophomore Cullen Bozza (Smithtown, N.Y./Smithtown) scored Maritime's third goal when Tyx hit him with a pass as he was streaking to the net and he fired the puck passed the CCM goalie, he then added his second goal of the game later on a breakaway. Tyx finally scored a goal of his own on a breakaway, wristing into the twine for the Privateer's fifth goal. Senior Matthew Franzek (Amherst, N.Y./Amherst Central) tallied Maritime's final goal in the win on a wrist shot from the slot.

 

In net, freshman Matt Tatarian (Deer Park, N.Y./Half Hollow Hills) was solid for Maritime, stopping all but three of the Titans' shots on goal.
