READING, Pa. – Nine different Lebanon Valley men's ice hockey skaters recorded at least one point on Friday night as the Dutchmen were dealt another heart-breaking overtime defeat by a score of 6-5 at Alvernia University in the first-ever meeting between the programs.
 
The host Golden Wolves scored twice in the first four minutes to take an early 2-0 lead. LVC struck right back with goals from Mark Kishko at 11:08 and Dylan Miller at 13:27 of the period to even things up. Matt Kassab assisted on the Kishko goal while Harris Blackwood assisted on Miller's tally. Alvernia would score to take a 3-2 advantage into the second period. The Dutchmen needed just 30 seconds at the beginning of the second period before Blake Tosto tied things up off assists from Brenden Yingling and Haralds Jirgens.
 
Alvernia responded with two goals in a span of 45 seconds to go up 5-3. Tanner Tolliver cut the deficit in half with a goal at 15:27 off assists from Kishko and Jackson Legro. Blackwood then tied the game up with an unassisted goal at 15:42 of the third period to send the game into overtime. The Golden Wolves scored two minutes into the extra session with a power play goal to earn the victory.
