One day after the University of Minnesota Duluth women's hockey team took over the No. 4 ranking in this week's USCHO.com poll, the Bulldogs also find themselves in fourth in the latest USA TODY/USA Hockey Magazine national polls.

UMD's rise in both national polls is on the heels of a Bulldog sweep over then No. 4 Boston College over the weekend by scores of 4-2 and 2-1.  

The No. 3 University of Minnesota will be the first opponent to test UMD's new rankings this weekend when the Bulldogs host the Gophers at AMSOIL Arena.  Friday's contest will get underway at 7:07 p.m., while Saturday the puck will drop at 3:07 p.m.
