Throughout this year, UMD Athletics is partnering with Minnesota Power, ALLETE to highlight the Bulldogs accomplishments in the 3 C's: Classroom, Competition, Community. 

One day after being named the Western Collegiate Hockey Association's Goaltender of the Month, University of Minnesota Duluth sophomore goaltender Eve Gascon has been selected the Hockey Commissioners Association Co-Goaltender of the Month for December.

Gascon was massive in the battle of top--8 teams, and averaged 24.50 saves in each game after she put up 27 Saturday, and she had the highest saves percentage among goaltenders that faced 40 or more shots over a series on the weekend in the entire conference.

Gascon, who spent time with Canada's National Women's Development Team as part of the Women's Euro Hockey Tour from Dec. 11-15 in Tampere, Finland, and picked up a win with the Bulldogs yesterday against Syracuse University in their 2025 home opener.
