The University of Minnesota women’s hockey team bested the University of Minnesota at Duluth on Friday, February 12th, 7-3 and then repeated the performance on Saturday, February 13th, winning 6-2.
Duluth entered the series against Minnesota at a disadvantage, as they were missing their second leading scorer, Lara Stalder, which put a serious dent in their offensive power. Interestingly, head coach Maura Crowell chose to place freshman Maddie Rooney in goal despite this being senior goaltenders Kayla Black and Karissa Grapp's last home series. Crowell had been rotating the goalies, especially since the start of the second half of the season.
