FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (February 2, 2013) – The Franklin Pierce Ravens scored a power-play goal with 0:54 seconds remaining to defeat the Stonehill Skyhawks in a Northeast-10 Conference ice hockey matchup Saturday evening at the Foxboro Sports Center.
Senior captain Roscoe Sweeney (Falmouth, Mass.) led the way for Franklin Pierce with a goal and an assist.

Kyle Craig (Quincy, Mass.), Dino Federico (Canton, Mass), Michael Carr (South Boston, Mass.), and Sean Dunn (Quincy, Mass.) all earned assists for Franklin Pierce, who claimed two NE-10 conference points with the win.
Goaltender Dave O'Brien (Groton, Mass.) stopped 30 shots including 14 third period saves for Franklin Pierce. O'Brien also earned eight saves and held Stonehill scoreless in the second period. Sophomore Chris Tasiopoulos (Norwell, Mass.) recorded 27 saves for the Skyhawks, who outshot the Ravens 34-32 on the night.
Freshman Dan Graham (Billerica, Mass.) earned two points on a goal and an assist for the Skyhawks. Nate Soter (Danvers, Mass.) added a goal and an assist of his own, totaling four points in his last two games following a two assist performance Tuesday night against UMass Dartmouth. Also earning two points for Stonehill was junior assistant captain Bill Carey (Weymouth, Mass.) who dished out two assists on the night. Junior defenseman Andrew Miller (Oxford, Conn.) notched his second goal of the season for the Skyhawks, who fell to (10-12-0) on the season.
After a back-and-forth first 10 minutes of the game, Stonehill jumped on the board thanks to Miller's tally at 12:44 of the first. A great fore-check caused a Franklin Pierce turnover in its own end. Junior Bill Carey collected the loose puck and tossed it to Graham, who fed it in front for Miller, who slipped it past O'Brien for the goal.
