Bolstered by netminder Shannon Murphy’s 31 saves, Connecticut skated to a 4-2 victory over St. Cloud Friday night at the National Hockey Center.<\/p>\n
The win improved Connecticut to 7-6-1 overall, while St. Cloud fell to 3-9-1 on the season.<\/p>\n
Tiffany Owens opened the first-period scoring with two goals. The first notch came at the 3:19 mark of the period during the power play, assisted by Kim Berry and Laura Stosky. She scored her second goal with 2:22 left in the stanza with help from Berry.<\/p>\n
Sara Mahoney scored the unassisted game-winner four minutes into the second period. St. Cloud’s Roxanne Stang responded less than three minutes later, only to have UConn’s Jacquelyn McGuire give the Huskies the 4-2 lead minutes later.<\/p>\n
Abby Cooper brought SCSU within two at the 17:18 mark, but that was as close as St. Cloud could get.<\/p>\n
SCSU’s Ellen Brinkman made 10 saves in net, allowing all four UConn goals, while Laura Gieselman stopped nine shots.<\/p>\n
The two teams will face off again on Saturday night at 8 p.m. at the National Hockey Center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
