SUFFOLK SCORES

RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk (7-3-2) remains unbeaten, 2-0-1, in CCC affairs after playing to a 1-1 draw with Nichols Saturday, Oct. 7.  

The Rams' 24-goal offense has been quiet as of late, scoring just one goal in the last two games. Diego Pierantozzi(6g) and Francisco Valck (3g, 4a) lead the blue-and-gold's offense with 12 points and 10 points, respectively. Tommy Handelsman has a knack for setting-up Suffolk's scorers with a team-high five helpers. 

Nathan Harlow has been the go-to keeper as of late. In eight appearances, all starts, he has compiled a 1.13 GAA and .775 save percentage. 

GET TO KNOW THE GOLDEN BEARS
Western New England fell in a pair of contests last weekend, including a 3-1 setback at Roger Williams, to bring a 2-6-4 overall mark and 2-1-1 league ledger into Tuesday's tilt.  

The Golden Bears have found the back of the net just nine times through a dozen games. Mike Milazzo and Matt Spruill have potted a pair of goals each to lead the attack. Roger Leland and Shay O'Neill have factored in the offense as well with identical one-goal and one-assist stat lines.  

Braylon Casinghino has played the bulk of time in net for WNE. In nine games, he holds a 1.56 GAA and .705 save percentage with a 2-4-2 record including three shutouts. Mile Lanier (1.78 GAA, .733 save %) and Ryan Suprin (2.10 GAA, .500 save %) have seen time in net this season as well.
