BRUNSWICK — Despite Mt. Ararat/Lisbon/Morse goaltender Sean Moore’s stellar effort, a trio of power-play goals in the third period pushed the Brunswick High School boys hockey team past its crosstown rival, 5-1, Saturday night at Watson Arena.

Moore finished with 55 saves as he continued his strong play for the young Eagles squad, who dropped to 1-4-1 on the season.

Senior Cam Wallace scored a shorthanded goal unassisted when he intercepted a clearing attempt by Brunswick netminder Spencer Marquis with only one-tenth of a second to go in the second period to get the Eagles within a goal.

But a carryover major penalty saw the Dragons (3-4) score two power-play goals early in the third and put the game away. Brunswick added another tally on the man advantage less than halfway through the final frame for the game’s final goal.

Scout Masse led the Dragons with two goals and an assist, while both Sam Masse and Liam Hemberger added a goal and an assist each. Kennedy Eddy picked up the other goal for the visitors, with Nick Marro and Grey Perham contributing with an assist apiece. Marquis finished with eight saves to get the win.

Brunswick hosts Cheverus on Monday at 6:30 p.m., while Mt. Ararat/Lisbon/Morse entertains Scarborough Jan. 7 at 5:30 p.m.
