Dogs beat St. Cloud 4-2

Great game for UMD, though the second period the penalties slowed the game way down.

Game winning goal was changed from Noemie Marin(announce Marin) to Jill Sales which SHOULD mean Kirsti Hakala gets her first point of this season with an assist. She held Koizumi's bad (bouncing) pass in the zone (even if she did a 360 and landed on her butt to keep it in the zone) and got it to Koizumi who passed to Sales, whose shot was tipped by a SCSU skater in front of her own net for the goal. Not that it's a big deal, but UMD won nonetheless.

Michaela Lanzl was all over the ice, including knocking in the puck during a scrum in from of St. Jacques.

Riitta Shaublin started out a little rough, but in the 3rd period she was the Riitta we're USED to seeing out there. I'm still not sure she's totally for the idea of having to play the puck up ice, but maybe she's getting used to it now.

Hopefully, the sweep happens tomorrow!
