GREAT FALLS, Mont. – The University of Providence men's hockey program fell to the University of Utah 2-1 Friday night.

The Utes (6-2) scored the first goal of the game with six minutes remaining in the first period, and despite a few chances for the Argos (6-4), UP could not find the equalizer as the Argos went into the break trailing 1-0.

Neither team was able to score a goal in the second period, but 20 seconds into the third period the Argos answered when a loose puck in front of the net found senior Jamal Kalaf whose one-timer found the back of the net to tie the game at one.

The University of Utah answered with a goal a few minutes later to take a 2-1 lead, and despite the Argos having the goalie pulled for the final minute, UP could not find the game tying goal as UP fell to the University of Utah 2-1.

The Argos will be back in action on Saturday, Oct. 31 when they host Weber State in Great Falls at 7:30 p.m.
