Box Score

SCSU concedes two power play goals, scores on penalty shot

STORRS, Conn. – No. 13/12 St. Cloud State Women's Hockey (3-1-0, 0-0-0 Western Collegiate Hockey Association) fell for the first time in the 2025-26 season, dropping its series finale against No. 12/13 UConn, 2-1 on Saturday afternoon at the Toscano Family Ice Forum in Storrs, Connecticut.

After going 0-for-3 on the power play on Friday evening, UConn converted its first opportunity on the player advantage on Saturday, netting a goal just 14 seconds after SCSU was sent to the box for hooking. Despite leading the first period in shots, 15-8, St. Cloud State was unable to find the back of the net and went into the first intermission down 1-0.

Junior defender Sydney Bryant (Traverse City, Mich.) equalized the game, scoring SCSU's first goal of the game 3:50 into the second period. Bryant converted on a penalty shot that St. Cloud State was awarded after a UConn defender covered up the puck in the crease, stopping a goal-scoring opportunity.

Later in the second period, SCSU killed off a 5-on-3 power play before conceding its second power play goal of the game which ended up as the game-winning goal for UConn .
