How It Happened
Lebanon Valley's season came to an end with a 7-4 loss to Albright in the MAC Commonwealth Tournament Play-In Game at Arnold Field on Monday night.

The Flying Dutchmen (10-7) controlled the majority of the first half and jumped out to a 3-0 advantage before getting outscored 5-1 after the break.

Albright's Andrew Potter scored the first goal of the second half at the 12:40 mark before Brett Kudlak netted his second marker of the game off a Klayton Garman assist to put LVC back out in front 4-3 with 10:49 remaining in the third quarter.

From there, it was all Albright (7-9) as the Lions scored the final four goals of the contest, including Cam Cetrone's strike with 14 seconds left to play in the third that put the visitors ahead for the first time at 5-4. Lebanon Valley managed just three shots in the fourth period.

The Lions created some breathing room when Potter scored his third goal of the game early in the fourth quarter and Cetrone's third marker effectively ended LVC's comeback chances with 2:07 left to play.

Alex Bushong scored the game's first two goals for the Dutchmen in the first quarter. He connected on his first at the 4:31 mark before finding twine for the second time with 49 seconds remaining in the period.

Kudlak put his first goal of the evening past Albright goalkeeper Ryan Aler less than three minutes into the second quarter but Potter and Cetrone scored their first tallies of the contest midway through the period to cut the deficit to one entering halftime.
