Huskies fall in penultimate regular season game
MADISON, Wis. – (RV) St. Cloud State Women's Hockey (11-20-2, 7-18-2 Western Collegiate Hockey Association) fell in its series opener and penultimate regular season game, 9-2, to No. 1 Wisconsin at LaBahn Arena in Madison on Friday afternoon.
The Badgers (28-3-2, 22-3-2 WCHA) took a 1-0 lead 3:41 in the first period, but SCSU responded with a goal of its own just over four minutes later. Redshirt sophomore forward Marie Moran (Lakeville, Minn.) found freshman forward Raili Mustonen (Kalajoki, Finland) who had her one-timer and a shot off the rebound saved and the puck slid to freshman defender Sydney Lamb (Lombard, Ill.) whose slapshot from the top of the right circle made it through traffic into the back of the net.
Wisconsin retook the lead, scoring a power play goal with 0.8 seconds left in the first period. The Badgers added four goals in the second, including another goal with just 0.8 seconds remaining to take a 6-1 lead into the third period.
UW scored its sixth straight and seventh overall goal 20 seconds into the third period before the Huskies scored their second of the game, a power play tally from graduate defender Grace Wolfe (Owatonna, Minn.) four minutes later. Junior forward Alice Sauriol (Sherbrooke, Quebec) sent a pass from behind the goal line to a streaking Wolfe who beat the Wisconsin netminder.
The Badgers added two more goals to bring the game to its final score of 9-2.
