It took five overtimes and almost six hours, but Quinnipiac beat Union College 3-2 late Friday night/early Saturday morning in what is now the longest hockey game in college history.
Greg Holt of the Bobcats scored with 10:22 remaining in the fifth overtime to give Quinnipiac the win in the ECAC best-of-three quarterfinal series.
The game lasted 150 minutes and 22 seconds. The previous record was set in 2006, when Yale beat Union College 3-2 in a game that was 141 minutes and 35 seconds long.
What is it about Union College, anyway...???
Union scored two goals in the first period, while Quinnipiac scored a goal each in the first and second periods.
The third-seeded Union will continue the series Saturday night against the fifth-seeded Bobcats... if anyone is still alive...
Here's highlights going in to the third overtime...
