WEST ORANGE, NJ--The Seton Hall Pirates overcame a third period deficit to hand the NJIT men's club ice hockey team their first loss of the season, 4-3, at South Mountain Arena. 

The two-goal rally spoiled an otherwise strong performance by goaltender Thomas Pyrka. Phil Lelikov and Michael Crincoli as well as an outstanding short-handed tally by senior Kyle Bendel scored their first career goals. 
 
NJIT will return to action on Sunday at 1pm when the Highlanders host Princeton at the Prudential Center.
