Pelosi Scores OT Winner as Bobcats Ring in 2025 with Win

Box Score

HAMDEN, Conn. — First year forward Chris Pelosi scored 3:05 into overtime, and the No. 17/18 Quinnipiac men's ice hockey program knocked off Harvard 3-2 to ring in the New Year with a win and extend the Bobcats' win streak to four.

The Sewell, N.J., native finished off a sequence in front started by a shot from Aaron Bohlinger in the slot that caused a loose puck and flying bodies in front and Pelosi capitalized to earn the Bobcats the extra point.

Quinnipiac jumped out fast again, scoring the game's first two goals in the opening 20 minutes, courtesy of Travis Treloar and Victor Czerneckianair. Treloar's came in the first 63 seconds finishing off a rush off a back feed from Aaron Schwartz.

Harvard would score its two in the second at the 1:35 and 18:52 marks of the frame before the teams played to a scoreless third period.

STATS AND NOTES

Pelosi scored his second career game-winning goal and first overtime tally, joining three other Bobcats with multiple game-winners this season.
Bohlinger recorded his first multi-assist game as a Bobcat and has three helpers in the two games since the break. It matches his collegiate high, last done against Minnesota State on Oct. 20, 2023.
Czerneckianair has a point in three consecutive games, matching the longest stretch of his career. He hit that mark last season from Dec. 30 to Jan. 12.
Mason Marcellus extended his point streak to nine games, tying him for the second longest active streak in the country with New Hampshire's Ryan Conmy. It is also tied for the fourth-longest streak overall this season.
Quinnipiac is 7-1-1 over their last nine games, tied for the most wins of any team in the country over that span.

UP NEXT
The Bobcats head back home for five of their next six, starting Saturday afternoon with a regular season tilt against Northeastern.

Puck drop is slated for 4 p.m. and can be seen live on ESPN+.
