Going into 2011, the Baldwinsville ice hockey team is mired in one of its biggest slumps in years, hardly finding any relief against Division I opponents. That proved true again in Thursday’s game at Ithaca, where the Bees got humbled on the defensive side in the first periods of a 5-2 loss to the Little Red. B’ville did get on the board in the first period, only to see Ithaca still sprint out in front 3-1. By the close of the second period, it was 5-1, and the Bees were unable to recover. Mike McElwain had one B’ville goal and assisted on the other, by Steve Schneid, as Griffin Noffey and Brad Burlingame also picked up assists. Ithaca featured Austin Romantic, Eli Golbrecht (two goals, one assist apiece) and Anthony Massicci (one goal, two assists). B’ville, at 1-2-1 in Division I and 2-4-1 overall, does not return to action until Saturday, when its hosts Fulton at the Ice Arena in Lysander.
