MORIN'S TWO GOALS LEADS BULLDOGS PAST MAVERICKS 3-1

Sidney Morin netted two goals, including the game-winner, for UMD Saturday.
Box Score The thing about owning one of the most dangerous offenses in the nation is that on any given day, any player can find the twine, and rookie defenseman Sidney Morin was that player for the Bulldogs Saturday afternoon.

Morin netted to goals, including the game-winning strike with just 2:56 remaining in the game to help the University of Minnesota Duluth women's hockey team sweep Minnesota State University, Mankato 3-1 at All Seasons Arena in Mankato, Minn.  With the win, the Bulldogs improve to 4-3-1 overall and 2-3-1 in the tough Western Collegiate Hockey Association.

The Mavricks again beat UMD to the scoreboard Saturday, scoring at almost the idenitcal mark of 10:54 on a goal by Nicole Germain.  Unlike Friday, it would take the Bulldogs until the second period to find the equalizer, and it came in the form of Morin's second goal on the season just 1:21 into action.  Morin's tally was assisted by Meghan Huertas and Tea Villila, and was UMD's fourth power-play score on the weekend.

Both teams would grind out the physical contest until Morin struck paydirt again with a quick shot from the point that beat traffic and found the five-hold MSU goaltender Danielle Butters with just 2:56 remaining in the game.  The Bulldogs were penalized just 33 seconds later but as time expired on the infraction, senior Jamie Kenyon jumped out of UMD's box and cashed in on the open net breakaway to seal the game at 3-1.

The Bulldogs were perfect on the penalty kill for their seventh game on the season, holding the MSU power-play scoreless on five attempts.  UMD netminder Kayla Black turned in 24 saves, while Butters made 36 for the Mavericks.

St. Cloud State will visit the Bulldogs at AMSOIL Arena next weekend.  Both Friday and Saturday's contests are set for 6:07 p.m.
