Pointers Stymied By
Oles in 3-1 Defeat
Box Score
UW-Stevens Point peppered 33 shots
on goal, but St. Olaf goalie Dan Wilde yielded just one goal as the Pointers
dropped a 3-1 non-conference men's hockey decision to the Oles on Friday in
Northfield, Minn.
The Oles staked Wilde to a 2-0
lead after one period and held on for the victory to improve to 4-8-2 overall.
UW-Stevens Point dropped to 5-9-2 with the loss.
Nick Stalock and Andy Ockuly
scored goals less than two minutes apart late in the first period for St. Olaf's
two-goal advantage. UW-Stevens Point responded with a power play goal from Pat
Lee assisted by Russel Law at the 7:31 mark of the second period.
The Pointers had only four power
play opportunities for the game, but two came back-to-back in the early stages
of the third period. However, they came up empty both times and the Oles' David
Adams scored for a 3-1 lead shortly after the second penalty expired.
Marcus Paulson made 29 saves for
the Pointers, who play at Gustavus Adolphus on Saturday. |
