Air Force drops overtime thriller to split weekend series with Lindenwood
Air Force learned a lesson Sunday night. Few college hockey teams can overcome their own mistakes against a sound defensive opponent. But in typical fashion, the Falcons showed resilience, rallying with an extra-attacker goal by Parker Brown to force overtime in an eventual 4-3 nonconference loss to visiting Lindenwood. The Lions’ David Gagnon scored three…
