MASON CITY, IA – Two goals less than 90 seconds into the game propelled the #10 University of Mary hockey team to a 4-1 road win at Waldorf University.
The Marauders improve to 5-2-0-0-1-0 (W-L-OTL-T-SOW-SOL) this season overall and 2-1-0-0-0-0 in Midwest College Hockey play. Waldorf is 4-7-0-0-0-0 and 0-5-0-0-0-0 in MCH games.
Harrison Johnson buried the Marauders opening goal of the night just 83 seconds into the weekend when he crashed the right post and tapped home a perfectly place pass from
Hunter Mangan on the back side of the net. It was Johnson's first career goal for the Marauders.
UMary just needed another 15 seconds to double its lead to 2-0.
Andrew Brubakken stole the puck at center ice and slid the puck to
David Loahr. Loahr found his way into the slot and ripped a shot into the net.
The Marauders expanded their lead to 3-0 midway through the second period when Brubakken tapped home a loose puck in front of the net for his second goal of the year.
The Warriors finally got a puck into the net at 12:55 to close the gap to 3-1 at the second intermission.
Joe Gronholz sealed the UMary win with the lone goal of the third period.
Caleb Cross was again stellar in net for the Marauders as the UMary netminder turned aside 28 of the 29 shots he faced in the game.
Brubakken, Gronholz and Loahr all finished with both a goal and an assist.
The two teams close out the weekend Midwest College Hockey series with a 2 pm game on Saturday, October 24.
