Somers led a strong defensive effort that stymied St. John Fisher and held the Cardinals scoreless in a 1-0 RIT win.  The Tigers have won six straight games and are 5-1-0 in Empire 8 play. 

"Chris was very active in the back, both in winning 50/50 balls, and providing covering defense which prevented St. John Fisher from creating any more serious scoring chances," said RIT Head Coach Bill Garno.  "Chris understood the importance of the game and rose to the challenge.  Not a big surprise to us, as he's done that for four seasons at RIT."
