Syracuse battles Lindenwood to 1-1 tie

After a 3-1 win on Friday, Syracuse (5-5-1, 3-1-1 College Hockey America) tied Lindenwood (3-5-2-, 1-1-2), 1-1, on Saturday in Wentzville, Missouri.

All three players on the starting front line contributed to the goal that SU scored.

With 7:34 gone in the first period, Stephanie Grossi scored a goal to give the Orange the lead. Melissa Piacentini and Nicole Ferrara both picked up assists on the goal.

The score remained 1-0 for nearly the entire game. With just 2:41 left in regulation, Lindenwood’s Shannon Morris-Reade scored to tie the game and send it into overtime. Neither team scored in overtime and the game ended in a tie.

It was Syracuse’s first draw of the season. The Orange ended last season with 10 ties.



It was also the second game of the season that went into overtime. The Orange had previously beaten Robert Morris, 4-3, in its first overtime game on Oct. 30th.

SU will resume play on Tuesday night when it matches up with No. 4 Clarkson in Potsdam, New York. Clarkson defeated Syracuse, 3-1, when the two teams met in Syracuse for the Orange’s season opener.
