FREMONT, NE. – Another clean sweep led to a perfect script for Minot State men's hockey this season when it came to facing off with the Midland Warriors. The team was back again to take on the Warriors on the road at Sidner Ice Arena as the Beavers could not have asked for a better weekend.

No. 1 Minot State (22-4-0) bulldozed through Midland (9-15-1) by a final score of 8-0 in another complete game effort. The Beavers wasted no time by lighting the lamp within the first five minutes of the match. It would stay that way for about 30 minutes of game time until the flood gates burst open, with Minot State adding three more before the end of the second period. The Beavers would eventually put the game out of reach as they struck twice in the first minute of the third period. Two power play goals made for the cherry on top to make the score what it is at 8-0.

Minot State finishes the regular season series winning all four games versus Midland.

Goals were plentiful for the good guys. Christian Kadolph made another stout showing for the Beavers in an exceptional five-point night, including his sixth goal of the year on the power play and four assists. Captain Carter Barley and Reece Henry each had three points in the win. Barley scored twice for his 10^th and 11^th of the season, while Henry poured out a goal and two assists. Sheldin Howard and Colby Joseph rounded out the goal scoring in the second period. In the final period of regulation, Walker Jerome and Jay Buchholz also got on the scoring sheet for Minot State. Trenton Curtis fulfilled the role of playmaker as he dished out three assists in another standout performance. Looking at the team stats, the Beaver special teams were huge tonight with three power-play markers on four tries.

It was another weekend of split reps between the Minot State goalies, as the Beavers went with Riley Wallace this time around. He stays red hot, as 22 saves were enough for him to get his third shutout in a row. In his last three starts, he has stopped all 62 shots that came his way.

Minot State wraps up another series resulting in victories over the Midland Warriors. Both teams will not meet again for the remainder of the regular season. Up next for the Beavers is a trip to University of Mary on January 24, followed immediately by a home-and-home weekend set with the University of Jamestown in a classic North Dakota rivalry week.
