Sat: #14 Providence 7, St. Thomas 4

St. Thomas’ men’s program opened up its new barn by jumping out to a 2-0 lead on a pair of shorthanded goals against No. 14 Providence, but the Friars tied things up with a pair in the third to earn a 2-2 tie. The Tommies won the shootout, giving them absolutely no points in this non-conference tilt. St. Thomas’ new rink is off to a wild start. The wild women’s series coupled with the men’s series against Providence may have not given the hosts the desired outcomes, but man, they were some fun games. No. 14 Providence won the weekend picking up a 7-4 win on Saturday night, rallying from a 4-1 deficit to score the games last six goals and leave St. Paul with a victory. Alex Gaffney scored his fifth of the season for the Tommies, who fell to 2-4-1. St. Thomas will have a home-and-home to open its final CCHA season with Minnesota State.

Max Plante scored a pair of goals and No. 18 Minnesota Duluth completed its first sweep of No. 13 Minnesota since 2021 and the first sweep at Mariucci since 2009.

Division I Women

Fri: #3 Minnesota 4, #4 Minnesota Duluth 0

Sat: #3 Minnesota 3, #4 Minnesota Duluth 2

Sat: #1 Wisconsin 4, Minnesota State 0

Sun: #1 Wisconsin 8, Minnesota State 0

Four different players scored as top-ranked Wisconsin opened up its Saturday-Sunday series with Minnesota State with a 4-0 win in Madison. It was a rough outing for visiting Minnesota State as the top-ranked Badgers closed out the sweep with an 8-rip shutout of the Mavericks. Eight different Badgers scored, and contrary to what you might have heard on BTN+, it’s highly unlikely Minnesota State’s Avery Stilwell was having too much fun in there in goal. Badgers must have loaded up on that Destination Hydration Jump Around Spring Water … or as we used to call it, BadgerMax. Minnesota State drops to 5-5 on the season and will host Bemidji State next weekend. Bemidji was off this weekend.

Second-ranked Ohio State rallied from a 2-0 deficit to compete the home sweep over 10th-ranked St. Cloud State with a 4-2 win on Saturday in Columbus. Joye Dunne scored a natural hatty in the third period to give her eight goals on the season. St. Cloud State hosts UMD this coming weekend.

Fri: Providence 7, #13 St. Thomas 6

Sat: #13 St. Thomas 5, Providence 1

The women’s debut at Lee & Penny Anderson Arena was an exciting one, but not a winning one for the host St. Thomas Tommies. Despite holding Providence to 14 shots, half of those shots found the net as the Friars picked up a 7-6 overtime win in a wild game in St. Paul on Friday afternoon. Reichen Kirchmair scored four goals, including the game-winner halfway through the extra period. Four different players found the net, including Rylee Bartz, who scored her seventh of the season as the Tommies rebounded from Friday’s heartbreaker with a sound 5-1 win over Providence to earn the home split at the new building. St. Thomas improved to 7-3 and will host Ohio State next weekend.
