PLEASANTVILLE, N.Y. – No. 18 ranked Bentley went on the road and defeated No. 11 ranked Pace 11-10 on Saturday night.

Junior Conor Segreti (Darnestown, Md./St. John's) scored the go-ahead goal with 2:18 remaining to break a 10-10 tie. Cam Bartolomeo (Meriden, Conn./Xavier) then won the ensuing faceoff and Bentley maintained possession the rest of the way to secure the victory.

Bentley led most of the game until Pace took its first lead of the night at the 8:41 mark of the 4^th quarter on a goal by Jake Veres to make the score 10-9. But after the teams exchanged possessions, including Bentley killing off a Pace man-up situation, sophomore Nathan Alviti (New Fairfield, Conn./New Fairfield) scored the tying goal at the 3:43 mark.

Bartolomeo won the ensuing faceoff and Andrew Granzier (Scarborough, Maine/Scarborough) scooped the ground ball for possession, which led to a shot by Segreti that was saved.
