After being swept last weekend by Western Michigan University, the St. Cloud State University men's hockey team started to get back on track against Miami University on Friday night.

After a scoreless opening period, Miami found the back of the net early in the second. SCSU answered with a goal to tie things up. The battle continued and the teams entered the final period deadlocked at 2-2.

The Huskies put the RedHawks away in the third, netting two goals and shutting out Miami to win it 4-2.

SCSU outshot the RedHawks 35-21 in the win. Zach Okabe, Easton Brodzinski, Jack Poehling, and Micah Miller each scored a goal for the Huskies. David Hrenak made 19 saves and allowed two goals.

The Huskies improve to 9-12-4 and 6-9-0 NCHC. They will look to keep the momentum going when they take their home ice for game two on Saturday. Pre-game starts at 6:30 p.m. on The River 96.7 FM.
