Bowling Green hockey opened its weekend series against Michigan Tech with a 3-1 win thanks to strong defensive play from the Falcons.
Player of the game: Connor Ford (2Gs)
Key stat: Michigan Tech held to 21 shots
BG had to deal with penalties early as Will Cullen sat for boarding four minutes into the opening period. The Huskies would strike on that power play but by no fault of the Falcons. An odd carom off the back of the net left an empty cage for Trenton Bliss, who slid the puck behind the line for his second goal of the year.
