BULLDOGS HEAD DOWN TO MANKATO FOR WEEKEND SERIES WITH MUCH IMPROVED MINNESOTA STATE
Fresh off a sweep of the University of Wisconsin, the University of Minnesota Duluth women’s hockey team will hit the road for the first time this season when it travels to Mankato, Minn. The Bulldogs will face Minnesota State University, Mankato in a Western Collegiate Hockey Association series at All Seasons Arena, a rink UMD has not lost in for almost eight seasons. Friday’s contest will get underway at 7:07 pm, while Saturday’s skate is slated for 3:07 pm.

THE SERIES: The Bulldogs are 46-4-3 all-time against MSU and own a 13game unbeaten streak that started back on Nov. 22, 2009. UMD won all four games against the Mavericks last season, outscoring MSU 18-4. The two programs last faced each other at AMSOIL Arena on Feb. 17-18, the last series for both squads of the 2011-12 regular season. UMD skated off with a 4-1 triumph on Feb. 17, with help from then junior forward Audrey Cournoyer, who netted two goals in the first period. MSU was whistled for 36 minutes worth of infractions on just six penalties, with 20 minutes charged to one player as time expired. The following night (Feb. 18) the Bulldogs were actually outshot 30-26, but simply were more accurate with a 7-1 blowout of the Mavericks. Then sophomore Jamie Kenyon scored two goals in the opening 2:42 of action and UMD rolled from there, netting three tallies in the first and third periods of play. In all, 13 players registered a point in the win, the most points in a game by UMD since 13 skaters got on the scoresheet back on Feb. 19, 2011 (a 9-0 win for the Bulldogs). Kenyon was one of three players to nab a career-high that night, posting three points (2g, 1a). Shara Jasper and Tea Villila also dished out a career-high two assists. LAST WEEK: UMD pulled off back-to-back shutouts of Wisconsin over the weekend for the first time since Jan.16-17, 2010, triumphing 2-0 Saturday afternoon and 1-0 Sunday. Saturday the Bulldogs were outshot 31-17 and served with 23 minutes worth of penalties, yet still prevailed by two goals. Brienna Gillanders and Jenna McParland recorded goals in the skate, while freshman goaltender Kayla Black made a career-high 33 saves for her first career shutout. Sunday Jessica Wong scored from the left point with 1:48 left in the first period, netting the eventual game-winner for the Bulldogs. Black made 25 saves for her second consecutive shutout, stopping 56 shots in all in the series. NOTES FROM THE WISCONSIN SERIES: UMD is now 29-26-10 in 65 meetings with Wisconsin, including a three-game win streak against the Badgers dating back to the WCHA Final Face-Off semifinal last March.
