CORTLAND, N.Y. - Junior Darren McCormick (Buffalo/Buffalo Jr. Sabres) scored three goals and added an assist to lead the Cortland men's hockey team to a come-from-behind, 5-2, victory versus Curry College Saturday afternoon in non-conference action at Alumni Arena.

Freshman Sean Perichak (Oakville, ON/Markham Royals) tallied two assists for the Red Dragons (8-7-1), junior Drazen Zack (East Greenbush/Connecticut Oilers) contributed one goal and one assist and Stefano Alonzi (Maple, ON/Burlington Cougars) scored a goal. Juniors Andrew McCann (Bowmanville, ON/Wellington Dukes) and Mike Crowley (Buffalo/Springfield Blues) and freshmen Tony DeVito (Chicago, IL/New Jersey Titans) each contributed one assist. Junior goalie Drew Weigman (Annapolis, MD/Northern Cyclones) registered 38 saves.

Sophomore Mack Heisinger (Winnipeg, MB/Winnipeg Blues) led the Colonels (8-6-1) with one goal and one assist. Junior Ryan Fitzgerald (Cary, NC/Connecticut Oilers) netted a goal, and senior Jake Heisinger (Winnipeg, MB/Winnipeg Blues), junior Phil Kiss (Burlington, ON/Georgetown Raiders) and sophomore Lionel Mauron (Lausanne, Switzerland/Springfield Pics) each chipped in with an assist. Sophomore goalie Spencer Cookson (Sheffield, MA/Berkshire School) made 22 saves and allowed three goals in 57:42, while Cortland added two empty-net scores.

Curry took a 2-0 lead just past the midway point of the second period before Cortland started its comeback. McCormick scored his first goal at 15:10 of the second on the power play, and Zack made it a 2-2 game with a power-play goal at 17:23.

Alonzi netted the game-winner, also on the power play, at 6:57 of the third period on a slap shot from the right point through traffic, and McCormick finished off the scoring with empty-net goals at 18:36 and 19:55, respectively, to complete the hat trick and raise his season goal total to 14.
