APAfter the clock expired, the Blue Jays celebrated and the Blue Devils (17-3) gathered in a somber huddle in front of their bench.
“Last year just made us a tighter group,” Quinzani said. “That’s why so many of us are so emotional right now.”
Duke came up short, but could take consolation in at least playing the game. One year earlier, their season ended after a loss to Cornell on March 21.
“Coach reminded us what a great season it was and that we should be proud of ourselves,” senior Ed Douglas said, “but certainly it hurts.” Ned Crotty scored three goals for the Blue Devils, who came into the game with a school-record 12-game winning streak — a run that included an 11-9 win over Hopkins on April 7.
Jake Byrne scored four goals, and Paul Rabil had a goal and five assists for Hopkins.
Duke trailed 10-4 at halftime, then blanked Hopkins in the third period and closed to 10-9 entering the final period.
Quinzani started the comeback by scoring with 10:50 left in the third quarter, and Crotty scored 24 seconds later. Goals by Ross, Mike Catalino and Peter Lamade followed, getting the Blue Devils to 10-9 with 5:21 left in the period.
Rabil ended Hopkins’ drought early in the fourth quarter, but Matt Danowski answered with 12:29 left, setting the stage for the exciting finish.
Byrne scored four goals in the first half, and the Blue Jays outshot Duke 27-12 and won 12 of 16 faceoffs.
Hopkins needed only 12 seconds to get the game’s first goal and led 4-2 after the first period. The Blue Jays won all seven faceoffs in the opening quarter and limited Duke to only four shots.
