Eagles soar past Vols in third period
October 11th,
2008 – The Florida Gulf Coast Eagles relied on five third period goals and some
Tennessee penalty trouble in the final twenty minutes to overcome a 4-0 first
period deficit to defeat the Ice Vols 6-4 Saturday
afternoon. FGCU dominated Tennessee in the final frame out-shooting
the Vols 26-1 on eight powerplay
opportunities. Tennessee held a 4-0 lead after the first
period when FGCU ran into their own penalty trouble,
but could not find the net again in the game.
Despite giving up six goals BJ Keyes put in a solid performance in
goal and kept the Vols alive while killing so many penalties. More game details to follow.

and freshman defenseman Will Byrne all picked up their first career
collegiate goals. As well center
Justin Maphet made his return to the Vols lineup a marvelous one, recording four points on the
night. Maphet

career victory with the win, keeping himself in 3rd place on the
All-Time Win list!
