(Crookston, Minn.) – The University of Minnesota, Crookston Men’s Hockey team hit the road for the first time this season.

Lawrence University got on the board midway through the first period when Matt Jacobs scored off assists from Josh DeSmit and Jon Bellotti. Nick Jennette made it 2-0 with only 2:48 left in the first period when he scored on the power play off an assist from Corey Garrett.

Evan Johnson had 17 saves for the Vikings while Bryan Dalbec (Fr, G, Superior, Wis.) stopped 51 shots for the Golden Eagles.
