The men’s hockey team split a pair with the Northern Michigan Wildcats over the weekend. The Falcons won the first game Friday by a score of 3-1 but dropped the Saturday tilt 2-0.
This was the first taste of WCHA action this year for the Falcons, and the physical play did not disappoint. Junior Lukas Craggs had a hard hit to set up the first goal of the weekend for the Falcons. His hit would jar the puck from a Wildcat player, allowing senior captain Stephen Baylis to feed an open teammate for the goal. That goal would be a memorable one, as it was the first in the career of freshman Taylor Schneider.
