OMAHA, Neb. (UND Athletics) – Senior Grant Mismash redirected a shot in the final minute to break a 1-1 tie in fourth-ranked North Dakota’s 2-1 victory over third-ranked Minnesota Duluth Saturday afternoon in the NCHC pod at Baxter Arena.
North Dakota (6-2-1) got 23 saves from junior Adam Scheel and the penalty kill was sharp, killing all four Bulldog man-advantages in the win. UND moves within a point of UMD in the NCHC standings with the victory.
“Big emotional win, can’t have a letdown tomorrow,” Berry said about Sunday’s finale against Miami.
After a scoreless first, Collin Adams got things going on the power play for North Dakota. The senior potted his third goal of the season and UND’s NCAA-leading 11th on the power play to take a 1-0 lead at 13:15 of the middle frame.
