ORONO, Maine - The Black Bears defeated the Seawolves of Alaska Anchorage, 2-1 in overtime, Saturday night at Alfond Arena.

First Goal (Maine 1-0): The first goal of the non-conference matchup was started by Tim Doherty who hit the puck into the back of Adam Dawe, where Samuel Rennaker scooped up the loose puck and fired a wrist shot. The puck found its way through the Seawolves' defense and into the back of the net. Maine lead 1-0 halfway through the second period.

Second Goal (1-1): Nick Wicks won the offensive zone face-off directly to the stick of Tomi Hiekkavirta, who fired a slap shot that beat Jeremy Swayman high to the glove side. The Seawolves tied the game, 1-1, as the second period neared its end.

Third Goal (Maine 2-1): Maine entered the puck into the corner, where Tim Doherty swung it over to Mitchell Fossier. Fossier then fired the puck off the glass, where it bounced off of the glass to the stick of Eduards Tralmaks. The forward fired it off of the skate of the Seawolves defender right into the net. The overtime goal gave Maine their second consecutive win.
