Long Island Sharks

Match report

Canisius Golden Griffins saw off Long Island Sharks 2:3 in an NCAA match on Friday evening. The away side claimed all three points despite trailing at one stage, holding their nerve to secure the win.

By then the standings told a familiar story — both clubs sat level on points, separated only by position. Canisius moved to fifth, Long Island remained fourth, each carrying zero points after what appeared to be the opening round of this phase.

The visitors had looked sharp in their recent run, beating Ferris State in two consecutive outings before a heavy loss to Mercyhurst. That 6:5 win showed they could fire, and against Long Island they proved decisive when it mattered.

Long Island's form has been unpredictable. After back-to-back defeats against Minnesota, they had bounced back with two wins on March seventh — one over Stonehill, another against Alaska Anchorage. But those results belonged to a different season now.

The gap between the sides remains narrow. One result changes nothing in the table, but it shifts the conversation. Canisius have shown they can win on the road; Long Island will want to know why they couldn't hold on.
