SUNY Oneonta senior Troy Lepore (Cortlandt/Hendrick Hudson) scored a goal and assisted on three others today, but the host Red Dragons fell to city rival Hartwick 13-9 in the season finale for both squads. The two teams completed the final 29:33 of a suspended game from last Tuesday evening where the game was put on hold because of severe lightning. The two teams picked it up at the beginning of the third period with Hartwick (6-8) holding a 5-4 lead.

Oneonta (6-10) freshman Blair Hanson (Fayetteville/Fayetteville Manlius) evened the score at five a piece just over one minute into play and then assisted on the go-ahead goal by senior Dennis Headrick (Kings Park/Kings Park) less than three minutes later.

After the two teams exchanged goals the Hawks seized control of the game, running off seven unanswered goals to put themselves comfortably ahead 13-7 with just over eight minutes to play in the contest.

Senior Alex Giovinazzo (Waltham, MA/Waltham) and sophomore Ryan Kloss (Hillsborough, NJ/Hillsborough) each had two goals during the run. Kloss finished the game with three goals and three assists to lead the Hartwick attack. Senior Steve Caramello (Duxbury, MA/Duxbury) added three goals and an assist to the win for the Hawks.

Hartwick goalie, John Meade (Ocean Beach/Islip) made nine stops in net while also assisting on Hartwick's goal that tied the game at 6-6. Oneonta senior Nick Murray (West Babylon/West Babylon) made 15 saves in goal for the Red Dragons.
