Dogs win 3-0 @ SCSU

UMD did indeed win, 3-0 over St. Cloud State. Saara Tuominen took a penalty at the end of the first period, and then one 2 minutes into the 2nd period, and that seemed to throw an 'internal' switch and turn her game on. She scored the first goal of the game (that was allowed, SCSU had one disallowed for directing the puck off a skate), 1 minute and 1 second after getting out of the penalty box the 2nd time.

UMD took 13 penalties (26 minutes) with the 'rookie' Freshmen taking 8 of those 13. Most definitely weren't good penalties, not having much to do with the actual flow of the game.

I figured they'd need a feeling out period the first game, and the first two periods were just that, getting outshot 22-16, before outshooting the Huskies 18-10 in the third period.

I'll post the News Tribune story and link the day after games when there is one to post .. if there isn't one I'll get the Umdbulldogs.com recap instead.
