On Friday, St. Norbert skated to a resounding 7-0 shutout at home, then finished off the Pointers with a 4-0 victory at Stevens Point Saturday.<br \/>\nIn goal, it doesn&#8217;t appear that David Jacobson will endure a sophomore slump. After enjoying an all-conference season as a rookie, the Green Knights netminder already has three shutouts this season.<br \/>\nCan Jacobson keep his scoreless streak alive? We&#8217;ll see this weekend, as St. Norbert heads to Minnesota with road games against Augsburg on Friday and fifth-ranked Gustavus Adolphus on Saturday.<br \/>\n<strong>Blugolds trounce rivals<\/strong><br \/>\nWisconsin-Eau Claire kicked off a season of optimism by sweeping rival Wisconsin-Stout last weekend. Wis.-Eau Claire won with scores of 4-2 and 4-1.<br \/>\nBlugolds senior Andrew Wilcox, coming off an impressive junior season, began his final season with a bang, scoring three goals in two games.<br \/>\nThe two rivals didn&#8217;t pull any punches: Wis.-Eau Claire logged 41 penalty minutes in the opener, while Wis.-Stout sat in the box 29 minutes of game two.<br \/>\nWis.-Stout will have to wait awhile to get revenge. The two teams don&#8217;t face off again until Feb. 1 at Stout.<br \/>\nWith their impressive wins, the Blugolds cracked the USCHO.com Men&#8217;s D-III Poll, coming in at No. 15.<br \/>\nThis weekend, Wis.-Eau Claire heads to Hamline and Bethel, while Wis.-Stout returns home to battle St. John&#8217;s and Concordia (Minn.).<br \/>\n<strong>Border battle notches split<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Minnesota-Wisconsin rivalry intensified last weekend, as St. Scholastica and Wisconsin-Superior opened the season by splitting two games at Superior.<br \/>\nOn Friday, the Saints cruised to a 5-1 win; on Saturday however, the Yellowjackets prevailed, 6-4.<br \/>\nIn the opener, the Saints&#8217; Brett Corcoran, who led the NCHA in scoring last year, notched his first goal of the season on a power play. In the second game, Wis.-Superior outshot St. Scholastica 34-17 and spent just 14 minutes in the penalty box.<br \/>\nIn my season preview, I picked Wis.-Superior to finish fourth and St. Scholastica fifth, so it&#8217;s no surprise that they split their opening series. Expect both squads to scratch and claw for wins in the rigid NCHA all season.<br \/>\nThese two teams will meet again on Jan. 24 on St. Scholastica&#8217;s home ice.<br \/>\n<strong>Wisconsin-River Falls hits the polls<\/strong><br \/>\nWis.-River Falls opened its season by feasting on nonconference competition, cruising to wins over Finlandia and Marian. The Falcons outscored their foes, 12-2.<br \/>\nDefenseman George Malliaras, expected to be a big contributor to the success of Wis.-River Falls&#8217; blue line, finished the weekend with six assists.<br \/>\nThe Falcons don&#8217;t begin conference play until Nov. 9-10, when they travel to St. Norbert. After their successful weekend, the Falcons are ranked 12 in the latest USCHO.com Men&#8217;s D-III Poll.<br \/>\nThis week, NCHA teams will take a break from each other, with every team squaring off against nonconference opponents. Wis.-Stevens Point, after getting swept by top-ranked St. Norbert, won&#8217;t have it any easier when it travels to No. 5 Gustavus Adolphus on Friday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Green Knights return with strong start After hanging up its third NCAA Division III championship banner, the St. Norbert men&#8217;s hockey team returned to business.
