The University of Wisconsin men’s hockey team showed resilience this weekend despite coming away with a tie and a loss against Omaha University.
Wisconsin (7-6-1, 0-0 Big Ten) fought back multiple times but couldn’t quite overcome Omaha (8-5-3, 3-3 NCHC) to capture a victory. UW held a lead in both games but was unable to retain either, conceding goals within three minutes of taking the lead in both situations.
The Badgers had a promising start to the weekend, scoring the first goal of the series seven minutes into the game Friday. After the quick goal by forward Ryan Wagner, the Badgers saw the Mavericks rattle off three unanswered goals, including one short-handed, to take a 3-1 lead in the first period.
