BOSTON, Mass. - Following a narrow overtime defeat a night prior, Castleton University men's hockey was stymied at UMass Boston Saturday afternoon, losing the conference battle by a final score of 11-0. 

The Beacons (9-5-1, 5-2-1 NEHC) raced to a 4-0 lead in the opening period and wouldn't look back. They would follow with a pair of second period tallies and cap the dominant effort with five in the final period. UMass Boston used 10 different goal scorers - Kolye Bankauskas was the only Beacon to find the back of the net twice. 

Castleton (4-11-1, 0-7-1 NEHC) posted 24 shots on goal, led by Glenn Wiswell with four. Brandon Picard, CJ Corazzin, and Stone Stelzl recorded three apiece. Starting goaltender Dominic Rodrigue made seven saves in one period of action before Brandon Collett entered and stopped 20 Beacon shots in just under 30 minutes. Simon Brenter made his first career appearance, logging 11 minutes and posting nine saves. 

The Spartans return to Spartan Arena Friday, January 14 to take on Skidmore at 7 p.m.
