WORCESTER, Mass. – Logan Ferguson scored in the 46^th second of overtime to give Holy Cross men's hockey its second overtime victory over Bentley in as many games.

Holy Cross would go into the third period tied at three with Bentley, but neither team could get the game-winner to go in the final frame of regulation. The Crusaders earned a power play in the final minutes of the third that carried over into the overtime period. It took them less than a minute to convert on the 4-on-3 to claim the 4-3 victory.

Ferguson's goal gave him his second point on the night after assisting on an earlier score. Alex Peterson continued his hot streak, scoring his third goal in two games and picking up his seventh point over the last five. Jake Pappalardo and Andrew Dumaresque also lit the lamp.

SCORING SUMMARY:
1-0 BEN (1^st, 7:41, EV): Jakov Novak started the scoring when he got his own rebound off a blocked shot and made good on the second attempt.
1-1 HC (2^nd, 00:19, EV): The second period had barely begun when Pappalardo tied things up for the Crusaders on a pass across the crease from Conner Jean.
2-1 HC (2^nd, 9:25, EV): Off a turnover right at Bentley's blue line, Ferguson showed some nice patience and found a streaking Peterson who put it away.
3-1 HC (2^nd, 10:52, PP): Dumaresque took a deflected puck and was able to jam it home on his second attempt.
3-2 BEN (2^nd, 12:39, EV): Charlie Marchand went bar down for the Falcons to cut the Crusaders' lead in half.
3-3 BEN (2^nd, 17:50, EV): After a portion of sustained offensive zone pressure, Bentley was finally able to tie the game at three off the stick of Novak.
4-3 HC (OT, 00:46, PP): Jean won the faceoff straight back to Matt Slick who pushed it over to Nick Hale. Hale entered the Falcons' zone with a head of steam and, from the high slot, found Ferguson who let a shot rip from the right faceoff circle for the win.
