LOWELL, Mass. - Sophomore forward Chris Maniccia (St. Catharines, Ontario) notched his first career hat trick as the No. 8 UMass Lowell hockey team completed the Hockey East weekend sweep with an 8-2 win against New Hampshire on Saturday night at the Tsongas Center.
Sophomore forward Evan Campbell (Port Coquitlam, British Columbia) got the River Hawks (5-1-1, 3-0-0) on the board first with a power play goal at 9:15 of the first period. Maniccia's first goal doubled the lead 35 seconds later when he slotted the rebound of a Jake Suter (Lac du Flambeau, Wis.) shot into the net.
The Wildcats (2-4-0, 0-2-0) cut into the deficit off a highlight-reel goal from Collin MacDonald. The junior gathered a loose puck just inside the blue line and dangled around Jeff Smith (Maple Ridge, British Columbia) for the goal to make it 2-1 at 13:07.

Maniccia then scored his second of the game, and third of the season on a breakaway to make it 4-1. He gathered the loose pack around center ice and went in with a defender trailing him and beat Adam Clark stick side. Michael Colantone (Cave Creek, Ariz.) extended the lead to 5-1 with 2:23 left in the second period with a shot from the top of the left face off circle. A.J.

At 13:21 of the third period Maniccia completed the hat trick to make it 6-2 when he regained a loose puck, skated in front of the net and beat Clark once again.
