No. 19 UMass fell to Northeastern on Saturday night, splitting the weekend series. My recap for @MDC_Sports: dailycollegian.com/2026/10/n…

END OF GAME: Northeastern wins 4-1 39 combined penalty minutes in this one, incredibly chippy and physical.

Owen Keefe called for roughing with 23.2 seconds left to play

GOAL: Martino gets the empty-netter to make it 4-1 with 1:47 left

GOAL: Sharkey scores on the powerplay with a one-timer in the slot to make it 3-1 Northeastern with 9:28 to play

Jack Musa called for hooking with 11:28 to play. Northeastern to another PP, up by a goal.

Third period has begun!

END OF SECOND: Northeastern leads 2-1 Another penalty-filled period, and both teams finally capitalized. Losing Barabanov means UMass' lines have to be shuffled around for the third. Northeastern playing a very physical game and Caulfield has been solid between the pipes.

UMass kills off the rest of the major, back to 5-on-5 hockey with 1:31 left in the period

GOAL: Hajibi rips a shot past Eskit's glove to make it 2-1 Northeastern with 5:08 left in the second Huskies have over three minutes of Barabanov's major left to extend their lead

Lieberman called for interference with 6:31 to play in the second period. Northeastern has yet to convert on the PP. Barabanov called for spearing and is receiving a five minute major and a game misconduct

GOAL: Gavin Cornforth ties the game at one on the PP. Second goal of the weekend for Cornforth, UMass now 1-6 with the man advantage

Northeastern called for too many men on the ice with 8:37 to play in the second period

Barabanov called for tripping, back to 4-on-4 for 1:13. 14:00 left in the second period

Penalty on Eli Sebastian for holding with 14:47 to play, UMass once again on the PP with an opportunity to tie the game

Kuhta called for a penalty on a Northeastern breakaway, refs award a penalty shot. Eskit turns away Mathieu to keep it a 1-0 game, 16:21 to play in the second

Second period is underway! UMass on the PP

END OF THE FIRST: Northeastern leads 1-0 UMass leads in SOG 14-9 and closed the period strong. A combined SIX penalties in the period, and after the horn, Northeastern was assessed a bench minor, so UMass will start the second on the powerplay.

No, your feed isn't glitching: ANOTHER penalty, this one on the Huskies. Lemay to the box for interference, 7:12 to play. Also, correction: Keenan in the box for UMass for slashing, not Cam Dunn

ANOTHER penalty: Cam Dunn to the box for slashing, Northeastern will have a powerplay with 7:47 left in the first period.
