Crimson Stays in Second Place In ECACs

The Mavericks snapped the Catamounts 5-game winning streak, outscoring Vermont 4-2 in the third period.

Maverick senior forward Ryan Severson scored twice in the final period, and got some help from nationally acclaimed freshman forward Tim Jackman to put MSU ahead for good.

Jackman stuffed in a rebound off of Cats goalie Andrew Allen to seal the victory for MSU, sending Vermont off to face Mavericks' conference rival Minnesota-Duluth (2-10, 1-7 WCHA).

Minnesota-Duluth 7, Vermont 3

The Cats fared no better against Duluth with a 7-3 loss to Minnesota-Duluth for their second loss in as many nights to a WCHA foe.

The Bulldogs from the Midwest took control of a back and forth game early in the second period as senior center Mark Gunderson settled a loose puck off of Allen and put it in the net for a 4-2 lead that the Bulldogs would not relinquish.

Upstart Duluth would go on to claim second place in the tournament, eventually losing to No. 5 New Hampshire in the championship game.
