The Brewers, ranked first in the Liberty League, held a 3-1 lead before sophomore Henry Brown’s brace led a furious St. Lawrence comeback. That resulted in a 3-3 draw Friday. The Saints then downed Bard 4-1. They are currently 6-2-4 on the year and 3-0-3 in conference play, good enough for second overall.

Women’s Hockey—Senior Abby Hustler tallied a goal and three assists, while four other Saints scored, as the then seventh-ranked women's hockey team had a 5-0 shutout win over Vermont Saturday afternoon in Burlington.

Lyndaker's time of 24:20.0 at the 8 kilometer race is the fastest time recorded by a Saint since 2011, and is the fastest time on record for any men’s cross country athlete at a non-NCAA event.

Men’s Hockey—The team also split their weekend, with their victory coming over Ferris State in emphatic fashion. They took an 8-0 victory Saturday. Senior Greg Lapointe led the way with a hat trick and a pair of assists for five points, while seniors Mason Waite (1-3-4), and Tomáš Mazura (0-4-4) each tallied four points. Sophomore Mason Kucenski earned his first career shutout in the win stopping all 30 shots he faced.
