The air in Value City Arena crackled with anticipation, a vibrant hum of excitement as the Providence College Friars prepared to open their season. Tonight, they faced the Ohio State Buckeyes, a formidable opponent on their home ice in Columbus. The puck dropped, and the game was on, a fast-paced ballet of skates and sticks.

Then, with 6:16 left in the first period, the crowd roared. Nick Saracino, a blur of motion, found the back of the net, scoring his first goal of the season to give the Friars a 1-0 lead. The bench erupted, sticks banging on the ice in celebration. But the lead was fleeting. Just 5:57 later, Ohio State's Anthony Greco retaliated, tying the game 1-1 with a swift shot.

The period wound down, but not without more drama. With 2:33 remaining, Brian Pinho surged forward, netting his first goal of the season and putting Providence back in front, 2-1. The final moments of the period were a tense standoff between goalies Jon Gillies and Christian Frey, both matching zeros. As the horn sounded, the Friars skated off the ice, holding a precarious 2-1 lead, the first chapter of their season already a rollercoaster of emotions.
