Piku added a second goal at the 4:53 mark of the second period to push Maryland’s lead to 4-0 before Jamestown’s Max Hamstad, assisted by Marcus Kivela Carlzon and Ethan Janda, ended the shutout bid at the 11:26 mark of the final period.

Trayce Johnson, Matthew Davies, Ryan Bottrill (two), Luke VanWhy, Bruich, Aidan McDowell and Dimitry Kebreau all added assists for the winners.

Marcus Kivela Carlzon and Ethan Janda were credited with assists for Jamestown (18-15-2-1).

Michael Morell made 16 saves in goal for the Black Bears. Jon Howe was the losing goalie for the Rebels. Teammate Nolan Suggs also saw work between the pipes.
