WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

• Host SUNY Morrisville dropped a 6-4 non-conference match to visiting Neumann men's hockey Friday night in Morrisville, as the Knights capitalized on Mustang penalties en route to the win.

• Will Jones (Corbeil, Ont.) cut the deficit to one for the Mustangs with his score 3:33 into the second period, putting away the feed from Colby Walters (Aurora, Ill.).
• Midway through the period, Morrisville looked to even the score at two with a power play of their own, but the hosts were unable to keep the puck in their offensive zone and Neumann's Luke Croucher intercepted the pass and had the breakaway score to put the visitors up 3-1.
• Croucher's tally was short-handed.
