TROY — Austin Heidemann and Jakob Lee each scored two of RPI’s four third-period goals as the Engineers defeated Colgate 5-3 in ECAC hockey men’s play Friday at Houston Field House.

The victory snapped RPI’s four-game losing streak.

Lee’s first goal at 2:17 of the third, tied the score. Heidemann’s first goal, a power-play tally at 4:22, gave the Engineers a 3-2 lead. He scored again 2:37 later, and that proved to be the game-winner when Colgate’s Anthony Stark scored midway through the period.

Lee added an empty-net goal with 52.1 seconds left.
