Colgate Men's Hockey Opens With Win

Don Vaughan entered his 18th year as head coach of Colgate's men's hockey team with a win over the weekend. He also is the program's all-time winningest head coach with a career record of 284-268-65 overall mark.

The Colgate men’s hockey team opened the 2010-11 season with a 3-1 win over Army at the Cape Cod Classic on Saturday night in front of 1,689 fans at the Hyannis Youth & Community Center.

Colgate (1-0) got a goal and an assist from senior captain Brian Day (in photo) as he scored the first goal of the season in the second period. Freshman Mike McCann netted his first collegiate goal, which turned out to be the gamewinner. Junior Austin Smith added an empty net goal late in the third to close the scoring.

Junior goalie Alex Evin made 22 stops, including 10 in the opening period.

The Raiders will be back in action at Starr Rink a week from Saturday as they host Brock University in an exhibition matchup.
