The Lowdown: Protecting the 'CAC cred
After Middlebury was destroyed by Plattsburgh last night, Willliams travels to upstate New York to defend the honor of the beloved NESCAC.  Williams had a rare four goal third period explosion in a 6-2 trouncing of Skidmore last night and haven't lost since the end of November, going 6-0-1 in their last seven. 

Key(s) to the game: Earn your goals
These are two of the least penalized teams in the country, with Williams only being called for 9.18 PIM/G and Plattsburgh with only 8.25 PIM/G. Both teams also feature top 10 goalies in Sean Dougherty (G, So.) for Williams and Mathieu Cadiueux (G, Jr.) for the Cardinals.  So if either team is going to score, they are going to have to earn it. 

Players to watch
Williams Peter Mistretta (F, So.) The sophomore out of Taft leads the team in points (6-5-11) but hasn't scored in over a month. Can he get back in the G column to help the Ephs get the tough road win?

Plattsburgh Jared Docking (F, Sr.) The senior from Toronto leads the team in goals (8-6-14). Can he light the lamp against one of the best goalies in the country?
