WORCESTER, Mass – Friday night, the Worcester Railers hosted the Norfolk Admirals, for the first game of a three-in-three weekend series for the Railers. The Railers would celebrate a 6-3 victory on an evening the Railers theme was also a celebration of Women In Hockey. Emily Brown and Taylor Girard from the professional women’s hockey league (PWHL Boston) were on hand to meet fans, sign autographs, and headline the pre-game ceremonial puck drop.

Andrei Bakanov of Worcester would get the home team on the scoring sheet on the railers first shot of the game, 2:16 into the first period. Mark Liwiski would tie the game for the Admirals minutes later, his goal coming at 4:45. Anthony Repaci would continue his scoring streak with a goal coming at 9:56, giving the Railers a 2-1 lead heading to the second period.

Worcester captain Anthony Repaci quickly extended the lead to 3-1, 1:20 into the second period, sending Norfolk goalie Yaniv Perets to the bench, and Kristian Stead coming into the net in relief. Norfolk would get the next two goals to tie the game at 3-3, Brandon Osmundson and Danny Katic lighting the lamp for the Admirals. Zach White would regain the lead for Worcester at 4-3, and Daylan Kuefler would put the Railers up 5-3 heading into the third period. With the Norfolk goalie pulled at the end of the third period, Trevor Cosgrove would send a rink long shot into the empty net with two seconds remaining, securing the win for the Railers.
