BLUES DROP CLOSE BATTLE TO MUSTANGS

Box Score The University of Toronto Varsity Blues men's hockey team fell 4-3 to the No.10 Western Mustangs on Saturday, January 17 at Varsity Arena.
 
The first period saw the Mustangs Julian Cimadamore score two minutes into the game, but impressive goaltending from Toronto's Brett Willows kept the game within reach after the first period.

Michael Markovic began a Toronto-dominated period with a goal in the first two minutes of the second, followed by fourth-year forward Paul Van De Velde's goal at 3:51. The home team ended with a 2-1 advantage heading into the final frame.

Western's Steve Reese and Cody Brown found the back of the net within the first three minutes of the period, but U of T's Dean Klomp evened up the game four minutes in. The game was tied 3-3 until the last five minutes of the third period, when Western's second –year defenceman Colin MacDonald put the puck between the pipes, sealing the Mustangs victory.
 
Willows notched 30 saves in his second start in as many nights.
 
The Varsity Blues return to the ice to take on the Lakehead Thunderwolves in Varsity Arena on January 23. The puck drops at 7:30p.m.
