Hamilton, n.y. — One might be the loneliest number, but it was plenty for the Dartmouth College men’s hockey team on Friday night.

Alex Jasiek’s unassisted goal midway through the third period proved to be the only one of the night, and the Big Green made it stick for a 1-0 win over Colgate at Class of 1965 Arena. Adrian Clark recorded 28 saves for the shutout, his second in a row and third of the campaign.

Jasiek’s sixth goal of the season, at 11:42 of the third stanza, came with the team’s at even strength. The two squads combined for just three minor penalties until the game’s final buzzer, when Colgate’s Bobby McMann drew a slashing minor and game misconduct to cap the contest.

Mitch Benson finished with 24 saves for the Raiders. The win gave Dartmouth (6-3-1, 7-8-2) back-to-back shutout wins for the first time since 6-0 and 1-0 blankings of RPI in the second and third games of the 2004 ECAC Hockey quarterfinals.

Dartmouth visits Cornell tonight.
