Wildcats Shut Out At #3/2 Minnesota State

MANKATO, Minn. - The Northern Michigan University hockey team struggled to find their groove in the opening period Saturday night at third-ranked Minnesota State University - Mankato, ultimately dropping a 7-0 decision to the Mavericks.

The Wildcats allowed four goals in the first period of play, a deficit they found too great to overcome throughout the remainder of the contest.

With Nolan Kent taking over between the pipes to start the second period, the Wildcat defense stepped up, allowing only one goal in the second period to trail 5-0 heading into the final frame. 

The Mavericks would score twice more in the final period Saturday evening for the 7-0 final.

AJ Vanderbeck led the team in shots, with four on net for the junior while the team registered 15 total.

The team registered eight blocked shots on the night, including a team-high three from Ben Newhouse.

The Wildcats return home next weekend to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the 1991 NCAA Championship team when they host Boston University Nov. 5-6. Puck drop for both games is set for 6:37 p.m.

A fourth period party will be held at the Landmark Inn following Saturday night's game (Nov. 6).
