Freshman goalkeeper William Lane (above) matched his career-high with 14 saves against No. 5 York in the Blazers' season finale. The squad put up a valiant fight in its regular season finale against the Spartans, who have advanced to four straight NCAA tournaments. Despite being outshot 14-1 in the first period, the Blazers did not surrender a Spartan goal, becoming one of only nine opponents (three in the CAC) to make that claim this season. Hood's lone shot attempt of the contest came off the foot of Conor Prachar in the 28th minute.
The Blazers allowed three Spartan goals, the fewest Hood has surrendered to York in five meetings, whichmatches the effort of the 2006 squad in the CAC tournament.
