Badgers’ hockey falls in OT, 5-4

November 3, 2012 By admin

The Wisconsin Badgers men’s hockey team (1-3-1) fell to Colorado College (4-3-0) in dramatic fashion as they lost in overtime, 5-4.

The Badgers, who before the game honored “Badger” Bob Johnson, jumped to an early 2-0 lead at the end of the first period with goals from junior forward Michael Mersch at the 1:29 mark, and a goal from sophomore forward Brad Navin at the 12:33 mark.

Colorado College fought back in the second period and had scored two goals scored by freshman forward Hunter Fejes at the 6:35 mark and senior defender Mike Boivin at the 8:22 mark.

The start of the third period had the teams tied at 2-2 and saw a four goal third period. The Badgers struck first, scoring 54 seconds into the start of the third period.

The Badgers could not hold onto the lead, allowing Colorado College’s William Rapuzzi to tie the game at the 10:54 mark after converting the game-tying, breakaway goal.

The overtime period did not last long as Colorado College junior forward Alexander Krushelnyski scored to win the game just 25 seconds after the start of overtime.

The Badgers look to even things up as they take on Colorado College at the Kohl Center Saturday night in the finale of this two game series.
