Hudson's last-second goal sends Nebraska-Omaha past North Dakota • NEBRASKA-OMAHA 1, NORTH DAKOTA 0: Alex Hudson scored with 0.3 seconds remaining in regulation to give the host Mavericks a victory over the Sioux on Saturday night at the Qwest Center. The victory gave the Mavericks a split of the two-game series and improved their conference record to 6-1-1 in their first season of WCHA play.
The lone goal came because of good persistence by Matt Ambroz, who took a pass from Terry Broadhurst, broke down the right wing and got off a shot. He followed his own rebound, knocking that off the skate of a North Dakota defender to Hudson who rammed home his sixth goal of the year, a goal that withstood a review by the referees.
John Faulkner earned his third shutout of the season with 30 saves.
Aaron Dell stopped 22 shots for North Dakota, which saw its three-game winning streak come to an end.
• MINNESOTA DULUTH 3, WISCONSIN 2 (OT): Jack Connolly scored 1 minute, 11 seconds into overtime to lift the top-ranked Bulldogs over the Badgers again in Madison, Wis.
Mike Connolly, who scored shorthanded in the third period, assisted on the goal that gave the Bulldogs a sweep of the weekend series at the Kohl Center. The Bulldogs won 6-5 in overtime on Friday.
Kyle Schmidt also scored for Minnesota-Duluth, which outshot the Badgers 35-24. Wisconsin has lost its past four home games.
• DENVER 4, BEMIDJI STATE 2: Anthony Maiani's goal early in the third period broke a tie and the host Pioneers went on to sweep the Beavers.
