The Plattsburgh State Cardinals would be back in action with the second game of their fight cancer weekend, this time against another nonconference opponent, the Williams Ephs, at the Ronald B Stafford Ice Arena with over 1300 fans in attendance. The game would not start well for the home Cardinals as they would give up three first-period goals in six minutes from 6:53 to 12:59 when Connor Berg, David Vieten, and Mel Mortaerlli would score for the Ephs. The Cardinals would answer back with 2 two goals from Patrick Cole in 56 seconds, with one on the powerplay to make it a 3-2 game. Unfortunately, the Cardinal comeback would be cut short when the Ephs scored with 1:36 left in the period, thanks to Bobby Vorkey to make it a 4-2 game, and that's how the first period would end/ In the second period; the Cardinals would have the lone goal of the period from Vlad Pshenichnikov when he would score at the 11:39 mark of the period to make it a 4-3 game after two periods. In the third period, the Ephs would regain their two-goal lead at 7:01 when William Yee scored. The Cardinals could cut the lead back to one when Patrick Cole would score at the 12:36 mark of the period to make it a 5-4 game. The Cardinals would appear at the game at five in the closing minutes, but the goal would eventually be waived off on a delayed offsides call, and the Ephs would get the 5-4 victory. In the winning effort for the Ephs, Cal Sandquist would make 26 saves as they go to 6-7-1 on the season and head into their next game against the Colby Mules. As for the Cardinals, they will fall to 8-7-1 on the season as they head back to conference play on Wednesday against the Potsdam State Bears. Gallery
