COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (Cadet Ice Center) -- The U.S. Air Force Academy got three points from Jacques Lamoureux and Brent Olson, while Greg Flynn and Mike Phillipich each score two goals to power the Falcons for a 6-0 victory over Bemidji State University in the series finale at the Cadet Ice Center in Colorado Springs, Colo. Saturday.

The Falcons used the 6-0 shutout to complete its first series sweep over the Beavers since the teams first meeting in 1997.

Air Force took a lead just 30-seoncds into the game, on a Lamoureux goal, and would not look back defeating the Beavers in decisive fashion.

“This was the toughest weekend we have had since I have been the head coach here,” stated BSU head coach Tom Serratore during his post-game comments. “We got beat in every facet of the game.

“Hopefully we have bottomed out now and can move on from here.”

After the Lamoureux marker would put USAFA up 1-0 early, the Falcons came back in the first periods’ final minutes to take a 2-0 cushion heading into the first intermission. Flynn netted his first goal of the season and first of two on the night with help form Derrick Burnett and Scott Mathis on the power play.

The Beavers were overmatched in the second period. The team was out shot 17-5 in the stanza and saw an Air Force lead swell from 2-0 to 4-0.

Flynn extended the Falcons’ lead to 3-0 with his second goal of the night at the 11-minute mark of the second period. Lamoureux and Olson were credited with assists on the even-strength goal.

With just 1:28 remaining in the period, Air Force would pile on another goal when Phillipich flipped a rebound over the shoulder of BSU netminder Orlando Alamano (Sr., Fresno, Calif.) for his first goal of the evening. The initial rebound came off the shot of Mathis who earned his second assist of the game on the play.

The third period was more of the same for the hosts. The Falcons got even-strength goals from Phillipich at the 8:42 mark and Greg Burgdoerfer, his first of 2008-09, with just 3:58 remaining to bring the score to its final resting place.

After skating through its first game at the NCAA Division I level without a penalty, BSU went on the man advantage five times tonight but was unable to find the back of the net on any and finished the weekend 0-5 on the power play. On the other hand, BSU was whistled for 12 penalties and put Air Force up a man on 11 occasion. USAFA was 2-for-11 on the power play.

For the second consecutive night and the fourth time this season, BSU was out shot in the game. Tonight Air Force edged BSU by 22 shots, 37-15.

Alamano made 31 saves in the 60-minute loss, including a 15-stop second period. He falls to 0-2-0 on the season.

Andrew Volkening picked up his fourth victory of the season posting 15 saves in his sixth career shutout.

Although Air Force stole the series from the Beavers, BSU still owns a 23-8-2 lead in the all-time series.

The road doesn’t get any easier for the Beavers (0-4-0; 0-0-0 CHA) next week as the team returns to home to host intrastate rival St. Cloud State University. The nationally-ranked Huskies are 2-2-0 on the season and come into the series after a pair of one-goal losses at University of Minnesota. Opening face off is set for 7:35 p.m. Friday evening, while the series finale will get underway at 7:05 Saturday. Both games are slated for BSU’s own John S. Glas Fieldhouse.
