WORCESTER, Mass. – Five different players scored and Connor Hasley made 30 saves as Bentley won at Holy Cross 5-1 on Thursday night in the penultimate game of the regular season.

The win moved the Falcons up to fourth in the Atlantic Hockey standings with 39 points from a 12-12-1 record and snapped Holy Cross' seven game winning streak. They close out the regular season on Saturday night at home against Sacred Heart and can clinch a first round bye with a win and some help.

After a scoreless first 20 minutes, Bentley grabbed a 1-0 lead on Stephen Castagna's sixth goal of the season 42 seconds into the 2^nd period. The goal was setup by a spectacular pass from Ethan Leyh above the faceoff circle to Castagna down low who tipped the puck in past Jason Grande.

Holy Cross tied the game on a power play goal by Liam McLinskey at the 3:30 mark, which snapped a streak of 19 straight successful penalty kills by the Falcons.

But after McLinskey's goal it was all Falcons.

Kellan Hjartarson broke the tie at the 14:48 mark of the 2^nd with a power play goal, following a strong effort in front of the net to get the puck past Grande after two initial saves by the goaltender. The goal was Hjartarson's 8^th of the season.

Just before the period ended, defensemen Sam Duerr lasered in a shot from inside the blue line for his 6^th goal of the year to give Bentley a 3-1 advantage heading into the final 20.

Chase Davis scored unassisted at 11:37 for his 8^th of the year to make it 4-1. And in the final minute defenseman Ryan Nause scored a 5-on-3 power play goal for his first tally of the campaign.

Hasley meanwhile turned away 30 shots for his 3^rd win in a row and 10^th of the season.
