Tim Braun recap's the Huskies' win over the Wildcats in Marquette to move on to the NCAA tournament.
Buoyed by their blowout victory over Northern Michigan on Friday night, Arizona State came out firing on all cylinders and, just like Friday, shot out to a 3-0 lead against Michigan Tech and hung on for a 3-2 win and the championship in the inaugural Ice Vegas Invitational Tournament.
Michigan Tech opened up with a first period blitzkrieg and hung on to beat Boston College 4-3 to advance to the finals of the inaugural Ice Vegas college hockey tournament. The Huskies tallied three goals in the first period to take a 3-0 edge and never gave up the lead.
A trio of Michigan Tech goals early in the second period earned the Huskies a spot in the 53rd Annual Great Lakes Invitational championship game. After the 5-2 victory over the Michigan State Spartans the Huskies will face conference-foe Bowling Green in the final on Tuesday. With under eight minutes played Jake Jackson found himself...
In the first series of the long Alaskan road trip, the Huskies faced the Seawolves of Alaska – Anchorage at Sullivan Arena.

The Huskies traveled to the other end of Lake Superior this weekend and continued to play well.

Joe Shawhan and the Michigan Tech Huskies may not have gotten off to the best start last weekend in the Hall of Fame game, but they sure did show up this weekend in Duluth at the Icebreaker Tournament. The win on Friday, which we already covered, had some spectacular moments and the Huskies held a comfortable lead through most of the game. On Saturday, tournament hosts Minnesota-Duluth came out firing on all cylinders scoring on the first shift of the game. Tech pulled into the lead just after the halfway point, and fought to hold it for the remaining 29 minutes, taking home the win and the tournament trophy.
Michigan Tech came out strong in the first period, flying around the ice and putting pressure on the Dutchmen right from the opening faceoff. It took under four minutes for the Huskies to get on the board as Mitch Meek scored his first collegiate goal by skating up the boards and putting a shot on...
The Huskies met the end of their season Saturday against the #1 overall seed Denver Pioneers. The Pioneers scored four unanswered first period goals leaving the Huskies with an unenviable challenge. The Pioneers added another goal early in the second to seemingly seal Tech's fate. Whether the Huskies had nerves coming into the NCAA tourney, or were simply outplayed by the top seed of the tourney, MTU felt the pressure of the NCAA tourney right from the start of the game.
