WESTFIELD, Mass. – Westfield State's Mathieu Jones scored a pair of goals to lead the Owls to a 4-2 win over Framingham State at the Loring Arena in Framingham on Tuesday night.

Westfield gets back above .500 for the season at 8-7-2 overall and 3-5-2 in the MASCAC, while Framingham dipped to 1-13 and 0-9 in the league.

Westfield got on the board first as transfer student Gianluca Marini tallied off a centering pass from Jake Ratcliffe, with Marini sliding down the right side of the crease for a quick shot and a 1-0 lead just 1:18 into the contest.

Framingham answered 12 minutes later with Matthew Paiotti converting with a shot right on the doorstep with an assist from Elijag Slagter.

The Owls edged away with a goal from Jones late in the second period, and then Justin Collins' power play tally early in the third period gave Westfield a 3-1 lead.

Framingham trimmed the lead back to 3-2 on a power play goal from Patrick Colgan with 15:25 to play, but the Rams could get no closer, and Westfield's Jones added an empty net goal with four seconds left to ice the win.
