PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- The Providence College Friars defeated the Acadia Axemen, 4-2, in men's college hockey exhibition action on Saturday, October 7 at Schneider Arena in Providence, R.I.

The Axemen opened the scoring at the 9:05 mark of the second period on a Joshua St. Louis goal. The Friars' Devin Rask got PC's started when he converted a two-on-one breakaway, on a pass from Jon DiSalvatore, with two minutes remaining in the second period.

Picinic started the Friars' third period scoring, beating Acadia's Mike Lencucha on a slap shot from the front of the goal, tying the game at two. Freshman Dominic Torretti and Peter Zingoni assisted on the play.

At 10:32 of the third, Acadia's Shane Regan was called for tripping which led to a power play goal from DiSalvatore, the eventual game winner, assisted by Peter Fregoe and Rask. Zingoni added an empty net goal at 19:14 to secure the 4-2 win for the Friars.

Nolan Schaefer earned the win for Providence after making 10 stops in 30:05 minutes of play. Boyd Ballard also recorded 10 saves for the Friars. Lencucha saved 41 shots in the loss.
