Hockey Weekend Preview: Denver Pioneers

After a successful undefeated opening weekend, where the offense showed signs of marked improvement, the Spartans' hockey team will travel to Colorado to face a huge early season test. Michigan State will take on the 5th ranked University of Denver Pioneers at Magness Arena. The Pioneers are coming off a series split with the Air Force Academy, rebounding from a 5-4 Friday night road defeat, to win the Saturday home affair 3-1. Denver will test the defense of the Spartans this weekend,as Denver returns three of their top five scorers from a team that was ranked 9th nationally in goals scored last season.
