Air Force hockey nearly survives sloppy game but falls in final period

Source Scout · The Gazette reports: The Lions left wing scored a pair of similar-looking breakaway goals in the third period to lift his team to a 7-4 win and a series split in the Falcons’ home opener at Cadet Ice Arena. LeBlanc’s unassisted scores at 12:29 and 14:42 punctuated a formidable third-period effort from the visitors after Air Force senior right wing Brendan Gibbons’ back-to-back goals to end the second period tied the game and threatened to absolve the Falcons of their mistake-ridden play. Air Force (2-2-0) jumped out to a two-goal lead in the first period on a pair of goals from rookie left wing Brady Arneson.
