HARTFORD, Conn. - The Trinity College Bantams earned a comeback victory against the visiting Babson College Beavers on Tuesday evening at Williams Rink in the Koeppel Community Sports Center, winning, 4-3, with two goals in the third period and the clincher in the extra session by junior Ned Blanchard (West Hartford, Conn.).  Trinity improves to 4-3 and snaps a three-game losing skid, while the No. 9-ranked Beavers drop to 7-4-2.  Trinity will visit top-ranked Hobart next on Saturday at 4 p.m.

In the third minute into overtime, Blanchard blasted a shot past Babson goalie Nate Muller from the right wing with an assist provided by junior Christian Hayes (Milton, Mass.) to win during the 4x4 overtime.  Trinity trailed, 3-1, in the third period, but rallied to tie it.  Bantam sophomore forward Richard Boysen (Belle Vernon, Penn.) slapped the puck into the net off a feed by sophomore defenseman Eamon Doheny (Lunenburg, Mass.) midway through the frame. With Bobak pulled, Trinity junior forward Kyle Tomaso scored his second goal of the game from classmate Jax Murray (Minneapolis, Minn.) with just 12 ticks left on the clock force overtime. 

Tomasso had given the Bantams an early lead, scoring off a pass from senior forward Riley Prattson (Tolland, Conn.) in the second minute of the first period of the game. With under four minutes left in the first stanza, Babson scored in transition after a shot by Bantam junior blueliner John Campenosi (Wayne, N.J.) caromed off the pipe, as Cam Joslin knotted the game up at 1-1.  Matt Cormier scored early in the second period for the Beavers after a collision near the net, but Bobak made two impressive saves in a row off his stick in a row as the Beavers kept up the offensive pressure into the final break.  Chris Rooney beat Bobak on a breakaway early in the third to make it, 3-3.  Bobak finished with 23 saves and Nate Muller had 24 for Babson.  Hayes had two assists for Trinity and Rooney had a pair of helpers for Babson.
