Marquette and Hancock Warm Up
1st Period: The Redmen came into this game with hopes to match their last match up with Hancock in which they mercy ruled the Bulldogs 8-0. The action got started in this game with the visiting Redmen winning the draw. At the 4:03 mark of the game Marquette would get the first goal of the game when Joe DeMattia rifled the puck into the net. The Bulldogs would have numbers and were pushing but Colin Nemacheck would tie that up. Jake Garrow had a really nice move and got into the slot but the puck would get poked into the corner. With 8:24 left in the first period of play Cole Ranta would get sent to the penalty box for interference. 10 minutes into the game Hancock would get their first shot and that shot would be from the blue line but it misses.

A goal came quick and early for Marquette as a rebound shot from Jake Garrow would go in the goal, Owen Riipi was credited with the assist and the Redmen led 2-0. Cambensy continued his strong night as he got yet another great save. Time would pass and Cambensy would get another save and at the same time prevented a rebound.
