HOOKSETT, N.H. – The Southern New Hampshire ice hockey team was defeated in overtime by a score of 3-2 to Assumption College in Northeast-10 Conference play Saturday night. The Penmen are now 2-12-2 overall and 0-3-1 in the conference, while the Greyhounds are 4-13-1 and 1-4-1 in league play.

Assumption's Ross White would score the first goal of the game with 4:42 remaining in the first period. White recorded his fourth goal of the season from Kyle Zobler and Keven Meehan to give the Greyhounds a 1-0 advantage over the Penmen heading into the second period.

The Greyhounds would build on their lead halfway through the second period when Brennan Shaw netted a power play goal at the 9:26 mark. SNHU would answer just three minutes later to cut the deficit to one goal when John Humphrey (Charlestown, Mass.) scored off of a Joe Collins (Mansfield, Mass.) rebound for his fourth goal of the season.

The Penmen would enter the third period trailing the Greyhounds 2-1, but a Charles Wisniewski (Strongsville, Ohio) goal from Jim O'Connor (Arlington, Mass.) at the 12:49 mark would be the equalizer for the Penmen, and would send the game into overtime tied at 2-2.

In the overtime period, Southern New Hampshire would fire off four shots to the Greyhounds three. However, with 1:39 left in overtime, Kyle Zobler, who assisted on both Greyhound goals in regulation, would connect for the game-winner to knock of the Penmen.

Penmen goalie Tyler Holske (Attleboro, Mass.) stopped 30 shots in net, while Bobby Bowden turned away 43 Penmen shots for Assumption.

The Penmen return to action Tuesday, January 22 when they host a league game against Franklin Pierce at 7:30 p.m.
