GENEVA, N.Y. - The Stevenson men's ice hockey team rallied from a two-goal deficit but fifth-ranked Hobart scored just 36 seconds into overtime as the Mustangs dropped a 3-2 ECAC West contest Saturday evening at The Cooler.

It is the first overtime loss for the Mustangs (9-9-2, 4-5-1 ECAC West) in five tries this season, falling to 2-1-2 in extra time. It is also the first one-goal loss for the team who entered the game 6-0 in one-goal games this season.

The Statesmen (14-2-3, 6-2-0 ECAC West) needed just 26 seconds to get on the board as team-leading scorer Nick Bingaman found the back of the net. Stevenson falls to 2-9-1 when its opponents score first while having allowed 23 first period goals.
