Corrected: Knights on Ice Lose to Cazenovia 6-1

The HCS post-season hockey picture does not look as good as it could have after Friday's games.

The Emerald Knights lost 6-1 to Cazenovia in a game played at the Morrisville Iceplex.

The score was 1-1 after the first period but Caz scored four in the second period and one in the third period.

Hamilton's Jimmy Smith (pictured) scored the Knight's only goal. Blaine Holcomband Kinnon Nolan-Finkel assisted. Brady Carroll had 26 saves in 30 minutes in goal; Brendon Rusch had 10 saves in 15 minutes.

Coach Murray Decock said two starters were downed by the stomach bug making the rounds of the team. Several others were sick but still played. Decock too was felled by the flu.

At the same time, Clinton beat Whitesboro 4-3 in overtime. Hamilton and Clinton are chasing the last post-season playoff spot.

The Knights play at home Tuesday vs. Oswego and Thursday against Rome Free Academy. Both games are at Colgate's Starr Rink; Tuesday's faceoff is 6:30 p.m. and Thursday's is 6:15 p.m.
