(csssaints.com) – Freshman Tyler Bruggeman (North Mankato, Minn./Mankato West HS (Austin-NAHL) ) made 31 saves and the St. Scholastica men's hockey team scored three power-play goals to defeat 15th-ranked University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point 4-3 on Saturday night at Mars Lakeview Arena.

The win snaps a five-game losing streak to the Pointers at Mars Lakeview Arena. CSS also snaps an eight-game conference winless streak.

The Pointers (11-7-1, 5-6-1 NCHA) would score first tonight as Scott Henegar netted a power-play goal with nine minutes left in the period. The Saints knotted the game up 35 seconds later on a Brandon Nowakowski (Calgary, Alberta/Central Memorial HS (Calgary Royals-AJHL)) goal. His brother, Dylan Nowakowski (Calgary, Alberta/Centennial HS (Brooks-AJHL) ), was credited with the assist.

CSS took the lead with 4:34 left in the opening period on a nice Paul Marcoux (Brandon, Manitoba /Vincent Massey Collegiate (Waywayseecappo-MJHL) ) power-play goal. Eric Kraft (Plymouth, Minn./Wayzata HS (Lake Superior State) ) and Brenden Bradbury (Winnipeg, Manitoba/Monticello HS/Vincent Massey Collegiate (Waywayseecappo-MJHL) ) earned the assists. That was the score at the first intermission.

Henegar scored another power-play goal with less than seven minutes remaining in the second period to tie the game at 2-2. Henegar finished with four goals in the series.

Stevens Point then received back-to-back penalties and the Saints would have a two-man advantage. CSS made the most of it as Brenden Kotyk (Regina, Saskatchewan/Michael A. Riffel HS (Dauphin-MJHL) ) scored one power-play goal to give the Saints the lead again with 3:10 left in the second.

The Pointers cut the margin to one quickly in the third period as Kyle Heck scored one minute and 25 seconds in. With the score still 4-3 late, the Saints would receive a five-minute major penalty and be on the penalty kill for the final two minutes and six seconds.

The St. Scholastica penalty-kill did its job, as Bruggeman had to make just one save during that time frame as the Saints prevailed 4-3.

The Pointers outshot the Saints 34-27 in the loss. Brandon Jaeger had 23 saves for UWSP.
