Two Times
With two goals against Brown, Clay Harvey joined Kellen Jones as the only two players in the Bobcats' lineup with a multiple-goal game this season. Quinnipiac has had multiple seasons in which several players have had multiple goal games. It is the first time that Quinnipiac had two players be the first individuals on the roster reach the mark by scoring both of their goals in the same period in their respective games. Jones did it in the third period against Holy Cross while Harvey did it against Brown on Friday night.

Second Fastest...twice
Clay Harvey's first goal against Brown came four seconds after the Bobcats went on the power play. The fastest power play goal in Quinnipiac history was by Eric Lampe, who scored in three seconds against Robert Morris in a 5-4 win on Jan. 23, 2009. Harvey scored his second goal, 2:58 later. It was the second fastest pair of goals by an individual player since Jean-Marc Beaudoin did it in 2:27 in a 4-3 loss to Union on Nov. 30, 2007.

Nice Shot Dalzy
Mike Dalhuisen scored his first goal of the season, and second of his career, on a blast from the point against Brown on Friday night.

Happy Helper
Yuri Bouharevich currently leads the Bobcats with five assists and is tied for the team lead with six points.

Quinnipiac Athlete of the Month
Quinnipiac freshman Kellen Jones was named the Quinnipiac Athlete of the Month for October. Jones led the Bobcats in goals (3) and points (6), while also ranking second with three assists. Jones had an assist in his first collegiate game, a 2-1 win against Ohio State before picking up a pair of assists, on the game-tying and game-winning goals, in a 3-2 win against Bentley. He then scored twice to break-up a 1-1 tie with Holy Cross to help Quinnipiac to a 3-1 win against the Crusaders. He also had a goal against nationally-ranked St. Cloud State this past weekend.

Really Impressive
