Hanlon, also a senior captain, also finished the night with three points after grabbing two assists. Senior Hunter Spencer scored the fourth goal for Beverly (2-4-2).

“It was a good win for us,” said Beverly coach Justin Shairs. “It was our second in a row after a slow start to the season, and the guys have been working hard. They let it get kind of close at the end, but they finished strong and did a good job. Hopefully we can keep this momentum going.”
