BUFFALO, N.Y. – Anthony Beaumont scored three minutes, 10 seconds into overtime as the Buffalo St. men's hockey team defeated Cortland, 3-2, Saturday night in SUNYAC action. The Red Dragons fell to 0-1-1 with the loss, while the Bengals evened their record at 1-1.

Freshmen Dan Broderick (White Plains/New York PAL Islanders) and Tommy Nolan (Mahopac/Connecticut Oilers) each netted goals for Cortland.
