WEST POINT, N.Y. - Four different players found the back of the net as the Mercyhurst College men's hockey team won its first game of the year Sunday afternoon, defeating Army 4-1 at Tate Rink in West Point, N.Y.

Coming off their first tie in over 30 meetings against the Black Knights in Friday's game, the Lakers jumped out to an early 2-0 lead and never looked back.

Army cut the deficit to one when Eric Sefchik beat junior Ryan Zapolski on the power play at 9:46.
