RUNDOWN ON THE RAMS
For the first time in 2016 Suffolk's fate was decided by more than one goal when the Rams moved to 2-3 on the year thanks to a 4-1 victory at Pine Manor Wednesday. 

Once again Alberto Bittan continued his offensive onslaught. The senior forward found the back of the net twice in the win, to stretch his season total to eight, which leads the league. Bittan is responsible for 61.5 percent of the conference's second-highest scoring team's goals. The Venezula native also has one assist to his stat line. 

Jordan Casey's six points off two goals and a team-best two handouts are good for second on the team, while Jarrett Davis, Alvin Di and Aaron Haggas have each added one score for the blue-and-gold. 

Kyle Van Cleef and Jon Brodeur have each seen action in net for Suffolk. Van Cleef is 1-3 on the season with 25 saves, a .694 save percentage and 2.61 goals-against average. Brodeur picked up his first collegiate win in his first start at Pine Manor. The freshman made seven saves in the 4-1 triumph. 

PROWL ON THE PRIDE
Regis snapped a three-game skid Wednesday with a 1-0 win at Lasell to move to .500 on the season (3-3). 

Don Gomez and Dillion Lanctot pace the Pride's offense with four points each. Gomez leads the way thanks to a team-best two goals, while Lanctot has dished out team-high two assists and scored once. 

Three different goalies have seen action for Regis this season with Manny Santiago owning the majority of the minutes. In six starts, the senior owns a .660 save percentage with 31 saves and a 2.75 goals-against average. 

INSIDE THE SERIES
Suffolk and Regis are an even 2-2 in the all-time series, which started in 2011.  The Pride shutout the Rams, 4-0, last season and hold a slim edge in goals scored, 8-7.
