BOX SCORE

SCHENECTADY, N.Y. – Union College received goal-scoring from six players to hand the University of Prince Edward Island a 6-3 defeat in exhibition action Sunday afternoon from Messa Rink.  The Dutchmen are now 10-1-1 all-time versus Canadian opponents.

Union scored twice in each period, as freshmen Kevin Shier and Spencer Foo notched their first goals.  Mike Vecchione, Daniel Ciampini, Sam Coatta and Michael Pontarelli also found the back of the net.

Vecchione's goal occurred just 44 seconds after the opening faceoff, when he intercepted a pass at the Panthers' blueline and buried a wrister.

Jeff Taylor recorded a pair of assists as Union never trailed in the contest and finished with a slight edge in shots (32-31).

PEI, which lost at Rensselaer last night, received goals from Reggie Traccitto, Tyler Brown and Mason Wilgosh.

The eighth-ranked Dutchmen open their regular season next Friday (Oct. 10), hosting American International at 8:00 p.m. on banner night.  The game will also be carried locally on Time Warner Cable SportsChannel.
