In the season opener for both teams, top-ranked Minnesota-Duluth began defense of its national title by defeating Providence 6-4 Saturday.<\/p>\n

The defending champions wasted little time taking control of the game, jumping out to a 3-0 first period lead on goals by Maria Rooth at 8:58, Erika Holst at 9:54 and Jenny Potter at 12:04.<\/p>\n

The Bulldogs continued to pressure the Friars in the second period with two consecutive tallies to open the period.<\/p>\n

Holst netted her second goal of the game at 1:04 and Michelle McAteer registered Duluth’s fifth goal at 8:35. After McAteer’s goal, the Friars replaced starting goaltender Amy Quinlan with freshman Jana Bugden.<\/p>\n

Bugden seemed to energize the Friars, who scored three consecutive goals to close the period. Sophomore Christina Redmond scored on a breakaway to open the scoring for PC. Junior Darlene Stephenson and senior Danielle Culgin also scored for Providence in the second period.<\/p>\n

But the Bulldogs scored their sixth goal at 4:41 of the first period when Krista McArthur shot low through a screen past Bugden to increase Minnesota-Duluth’s lead to 6-3.<\/p>\n

The Friars again cut the lead to two goals on a tally by junior Meredith Roth at 5:21. However, the Friars could not get any closer despite outshooting the Bulldogs 14-8 over the final period.<\/p>\n

The Friars and the Bulldogs conclude the weekend series Sunday at 2 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
