Here’s a full rundown of Saturday night’s action across college hockey:

Friendship Four

Miami 3, Union 2: Matteo Giampa scored his eighth goal of the season with 3:38 remaining in regulation, lifting Miami to the Friendship Four championship. Giampa was the hero on the night, potting two goals as Miami improved to 10-4 on the season.

Sacred Heart 3, RIT 0: The Pioneers blanked league rival RIT in the consolation game, riding a calm and composed effort between the pipes. Freshman Teagan Kendrick made 26 saves in just his second career start to earn the shutout. Felix Trudeau sealed it late with his 13th of the campaign — an empty-net marker in the third period.

Adirondack Winter Invitational

Alaska 3, Clarkson 2: This tournament featured pre-determined matchups, but this one served as a de facto title game after both teams earned victories on Friday night. The Nanooks trailed 2-1 in the second period before Michael Citara — who finished with a pair — knotted the contest. Rylen Roersma then delivered the dagger, scoring with 2:32 left in regulation to secure the win.

UMass Lowell 7, St. Lawrence 3: The River Hawks were desperate for a statement performance, and they delivered. After a chaotic end to the first period — where the Saints struck three times in under four minutes to flip a 2-0 deficit into a 3-2 lead — UMass Lowell responded with authority. The River Hawks scored five unanswered goals over the final 40 minutes to seize control and skate away comfortably. Dalyn Wakely recorded a hat trick, while Dillan Bentley chipped in with a pair.
