Barracudas Finish Exhibition Schedule with Loss in Bakersfield

By: Eric He

The San Jose Barracudas lost to the Bakersfield Condors on Saturday night by the score of 4-2 to wrap up their exhibition schedule.

The Barracudas fell behind early, as the Condors received tallies from Andrew Miller on the power play and Josh Winquist on a breakaway goal in the first period.

Ryan Hamilton put the Condors up 3-0 at the 13:14 mark of the second period. While San Jose battled back with its first goal of the game off the stick of Jonathan Parker to cut the lead to 3-1, but Bakersfield responded as Brad Hunt beat Barracudas goaltender Joel Rumpel with a hard shot from the right circle.

The game remained 4-1 in favor of Bakersfield for much of the third period and a late tally by Mike DiPaolo was too little, too late for the Barracudas.

San Jose will start regular season play at home against the Rockford IceHogs at SAP Center.
