REISTERSTOWN, MD (February 18, 2022) -- With his assist on the Monarchs goal in a 5-1 loss at Stevenson University, senior Michael DiSchiavi became the program's all-time leader in points for a career with 31. DiShicavi passes Luciano Bucci who set the career points record of 30 throughout his time in the red and gold from 2017-2019. The Monarchs await the outcomes of the remaining weekend contests to determine their UCHC playoff hopes with one game remaining in their regular-season schedule.

The Monarchs got on the board to try and chip away at the Stevenson lead 8:47 into the final period, in regulation,  trailing 4-1, as DiSchiavi broke the career record as the first assist on first year Aaron Frenkel's goal, his seventh of the season, as first year Casey Gerstein was also credited for an assist on the play.
