Cougs drop tight 2-1 decision to Trinity Western

QUICKLY
The University of Regina's women's hockey team dropped a tight 2-1 decision to Trinity Western on Friday night at The Co-operators Centre in Regina.

HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Trinity Western scored just 61 seconds into the game. Ella Boon's shot from the right circle was saved, but Kate Klassen pounced on the rebound and put it in on the backhand to give the Spartans the early lead.
  • The second period also featured an early goal, this time for the Cougars. Makena Kushniruk took the puck out of the corner and sent in a shot from the right half wall for her third goal of the young campaign.
  • TWU got what would turn out to be the game-winning goal early in the third period on a fine individual effort from Ashlee Wolfe. Wolfe blocked a point shot in her own zone, then beat a U of R defender on a 1-on-1 and went to her backhand to score her first of the season.

NOTES
  • Arden Kliewer had a 29-save performance for the Cougars as TWU finished with a 31-24 advantage in shots.
  • Neither team was able to score on the power play. Trinity Western was 0-for-2 while Regina was 0-for-5.

NEXT UP
The two teams will meet again on Saturday night at The Co-operators Centre. Puck drop is set for 5:00.
