MEN'S HOCKEY
The UMD men's hockey team earned a series split with Denver University in their first road series of the season. After giving up only five goals in their first four games, the Bulldogs allowed the Pioneers to match that total in just one game, losing 5-1.
Sophomore Jordan Fulton scored the lone goal for UMD. After a forgettable game on Friday, UMD goalie Alex Stalock had a career game in a 3-0 shutout win over the Pioneers on Saturday.
Stalock recorded 43 saves, the third most ever by a Bulldog goalie in a shutout.
The Bulldogs got goals from freshman Rob Bordson and juniors MacGregor Sharp and Matt Greer.
UMD will head back to Colorado for a series with Colorado College on Nov. 9-10.
WOMEN'S HOCKEY
The UMD women';s hockey team was ranked No. 1 in the nation for just one week before being swept by the Minnesota Golden Gophers last weekend.
UMD lost 3-1 on Friday night and 5-1 on Saturday. The Gophers out-shot UMD 43-20 in Friday's game and also scored two shorthanded goals to hand the Bulldogs their first loss of the season. Sophomore Emmanuelle Blais scored UMD's only goal on Friday.
The Gophers came out strong again on Saturday, building a 5-0 lead after two periods. UMD freshman Jocelyne Larocque scored early in the third period to make the score 5-1, but it wasn't enough.
UMD travels to Grand Forks N.D. to play the University of North Dakota on Nov. 3-4.
