SCSU

The Huskies were defeated by the Broncos 4-3 in their first round of the Regional. They held the lead for most of the game, but let it slip away in the ninth inning.

The Huskies were defeated by the Augustana Vikings and the Minot Beavers on Saturday May 11. Regional will start on Thursday May 16 and run thru Saturday May 18th.

The Huskies will open the conference schedule on Friday, November 15th against Colorado College at the Herb Brooks National Hockey Center.

Poehling completed his junior season with SCSU just over a week ago in SCSU's NCAA Tournament loss to American International before turning pro.

Former St. Cloud State defenseman Jimmy Schuldt has been named one of three finalists for the Hobey Baker Award. The finalists were announced Thursday morning.

Schuldt is a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award, which will be given to the nation's top college hockey player next weekend at the Frozen Four in Buffalo, New York.

Lizotte played in 37 games this season for SCSU, scoring 42 points including 14 goals. The 42 points were second only to Patrick Newell, who recently signed with the New York Rangers.

Sure, it stinks (and maybe it's a little maddening) that the Huskies were bounced in the first round of the NCAA tourney as the #1 seed for a second straight year, but that doesn't mean the season was a total loss.

The #1 ranked St. Cloud State men's hockey team was once again shocked in the first round of the NCAA Tournament, losing 2-1 to #16 seeded American International College at Scheels Arena in Fargo, North Dakota in front of 4,220 fans.

"It's not a mistake that they won their league's regular season, then did it again in their playoffs," SCSU head coach Brett Larson said. "They are coached very well and have good structure."
