Men's hockey falls 5-4 in OT

By Jeff Beyer | March 6, 1996

TROY, N.Y.-Mar. 5 -- The Dartmouth men's hockey team was eliminated from the ECAC playoffs here tonight, losing a 5-4 game to RPI when Jon Pirrong scored the game-winner with 3:46 left in the first sudden-death overtime. It was one of the most intense, exciting games the men's hockey team has been involved with for many years -- and that might be an understatement. Pirrong ended the third-longest game in ECAC playoff history when Jean Francois Gosselin stole the puck behind the Big Green net and dished it in front. Pirrong's winner beat Dartmouth goalie Scott Baker '97 and sent the Hosston Freid Hasse crowd into a frenzy. Dartmouth Coach Roger Demment called it a "classic playoff game." He said the Big Green did a "tremendous job of coming back each time we were down," but added the squad could never "take the lead and run with it." "It's very difficult to lose a game like this," Demment said. Both goalies, Dartmouth's Baker and RPI's Mike Tamburro, were tremendous.

Not only has she proven to be the top individual performer on the Dartmouth ski team, she has also established herself as one of the top collegiate skiers in the country. "Jen has been an incredible asset to the team in both skiing ability and personality," Captain Nora Stowell '96 said. "She's the most unself-centered person I know, for being such an amazing skier.
