UNH’s Men’s Hockey Battles the no. 1 Ranked Boston College

The University of New Hampshire men’s hockey team fought an uphill battle but could not prevail against Boston College, the number one ranked team in the country on Friday, Feb. 7. Seven minutes into the first period, UNH’s Kristaps Skrastins lost the puck in front of UNH goalie, Jared Whale, where BC’s Gabe Perreault gained control. Between the teamwork of Whale and assistant captain, Nikolai Jenson, UNH regained possession of the puck. The first penalty called was on the Wildcats for roughing and Head Coach Mike Souza challenged the call, but it the call stayed giving Boston College a power play. Head Coach Mike Souza commented, “In college you lose a time out. I mean, obviously we could have used the time out towards the end of the game, but it’s not like the NHL where it’s a minor penalty… I looked at it afterward, I guess the refs probably got it right, but matter of perspective, some might’ve saw it differently.” The Wildcats ended the period on a power play and the game remained scoreless. UNH went into the second period with 1:30 left in the power play. In the first minute, the Wildcats pressured BC’s goalie, Jacob Fowler, quickly. Luke Reid shot the puck, but Liam Devlin missed the rebound for a goal. UNH was not able to score on the power play. With the Eagles on a power play, Whale kept the net locked up. He had three incredible saves within seconds of each other, one even bouncing off the top pole of the net. The Eagles gained a 5-on-3 advantage for 30 seconds after another penalty was called on UNH but could not produce a goal. With 6:13 left in the period, Cy LeClerc got the puck from Ryan Conmy and flipped the puck from the right of the blue paint, getting behind Fowler. The Wildcats gained a power play with three minutes left in the period. The Eagles, Mike Posma, got a breakaway and charged toward Whale, but was he able to stop the puck. Boston College tied the score 2:10 left in the period and a minute left on UNH’s power play by Gabe Perreault from a breakaway and a shorthanded goal to the right side of the net. 2:04 into the third period the Wildcats gained the lead. Devlin passed the puck to Conmy, who shot the puck into the bottom left corner. The Eagles were quick to respond with a goal of their own 2:25 into the period by Will Vote, off a pass from Lukas Gustafsson. The Eagles took the lead for the first time of the night 6:15 into the period. Whale was behind the net to pass the puck, but did not get enough momentum under the puck to get it to another UNH player and was tipped in by on an open net by Gentry Shamburger. Conmy commented,” He’s been a rock for us all year, so you know things like that happen and we’re always going to have his back no matter what.” Boston College extended their lead with another goal 7:43 left in the period by Posma, who took advantage of the cluster in front of Whale to flip the puck into the right side of the net. Souza said, “I thought one of our points of emphasis, you can’t give them second opportunities. You just can’t because they make you pay.” UNH gained a power play with around six minutes left, giving them a chance to close the deficit but could not produce. The Wildcats took Whale out with 2:03 left in the period for a 6-to-5 advantage. Conmy said, “ At the end of the day we need to find a way to get over the hump, and just keep battling.” UNH will be traveling for two games at the University of Maine on Feb. 14 and Feb. 15 and can be watched on ESPN+. The Wildcats will be back at the Whittemore Center at Key Auto on Feb. 21 against the University of Massachusetts.

Chilton claims there’s no need for “further investigations” after Working Group said that UNH’s response to May 1 “likely violated” student’s free speech rights.

UNH Football Makes a Major Comeback Against Stony Brook

On Saturday, Nov. 16, the University of New Hampshire football team took on Stony Brook, winning 31-30. Before the game started, UNH took a moment to recognize all seniors by playing their alma mater. They then recognized the football seniors with each of the players giving their families flowers. The first quarter started with the ball going back and forth between the teams yet remaining scoreless. Stony Brook was the first to score with back-to-back field goals. The first field goal was from 24-yards after Stony Brook’s Duncan-Niusulu intercepted the ball at the Wildcat 30-yard line and went down at the 25. The second field goal came from a sack on quarterback, Seth Morgan, that led to a fumble that Stony Brook recovered by A.J. Roberts, who went down on the UNH 8-yard line. The first quarter ended with Stony Brook leading 3-0. The second quarter started with Stony Brook in possession of the ball, where they scored their second field goal for 22 yards. The Wildcats quickly responded and took the lead with the first touchdown of the day with a pass to Logan Tomlinson and a field goal by Nick Mazzie. Stony Brook took the lead back with a touchdown of their own in only seven plays for 60 yards. The touchdown was made by Jayce Freeman from a 30-yard catch and was paired with a kick by Enda Kirby. “Those (Stony Brook) guys were physically impressive. They went after it, they were wearing on us,” commented head coach, Rick Santos. UNH ended the first half trailing by three, 13-10, with a 22-yard field goal from Mazzie after he missed one from 38-yards. Stony Brook started the third quarter with the ball and scored a touchdown with a 14-yard pass to Cal Redman and a good kick by Kirby to bring their lead up to 10. “The third quarter, we just really didn’t have the opportunity to push the ball down the field,” said Santos. The third quarter came up scoreless for UNH. Stony Brook continued their lead with a field goal from 37-yards by Kirby. Stony Brook led going into the fourth quarter, 23-10. “It’s the most important quarter,” said defensive lineman Ryan Toscano in the fourth quarter. Stony Brook made their lead to 20 points going into the fourth quarter with a touchdown with a 13-yard pass to Cole Bunicci. After this touchdown, UNH shifted the momentum in their favor offensively and defensively. “When we needed them (the defense) the most, they stepped up, they created turnovers, they got us the momentum right back and we capitalized on the offensive side of the ball,” said Santos. The Wildcats scored a touchdown just minutes after Stony Brook’s final scoring drive. The touchdown was made by a 24-yard rush into the endzone by Morgan and accompanied by a kick attempt by Mazzie. The defense got the ball back to UNH shortly after with a sack on Stony Brook’s quarterback, Tyler Knoop, that led to a fumble which was recovered by Jacoby Sherard. This fumble led to another UNH touchdown from Denzell Gibson with a 2-yard rush and a kick attempt by Mazzie. The Wildcat defense clocked a forced fumble on Stony Brook’s, Malachi Marshall, which was recovered by Zedane Williams. This led to UNH’s third touchdown in a row with a 15-yard pass to Joey Corcoran and another kick attempt by Mazzie, giving the Wildcats a one-point lead. The game ended with UNH in possession of the ball and three kneel-downs to run the clock to zero. Santos described the game the best, “it was an epic comeback.” The Wildcat’s football team ended their regular season bringing the Musket back to Durham in the border battle against Maine with a winning score 27-9.
