Hockey Day ND<\/p>\n
At the UJ\u00a0 <\/a>outdoor rink at Allen Field<\/p>\n The 14th-ranked University of Jamestown hockey team defeated No.3 Minot State University 2-1 in a shootout Friday night at Allen Field as part of the second annual Hockey Day North Dakota.<\/p>\n After sixty minutes of regulation and a five-minute extra session of 3-on-3 hockey did not determine a winner, the teams moved to a shootout.<\/p>\n Fourteen rounds later, UJ’s Carter Johnson<\/a> (SO\/Meeteetse, Wyo.) put a puck past Beaver goalkeeper Holden Kurtz and Tyson Brouwer<\/a> (SR\/Lethbridge, Alberta) stopped Paul O’Connor for the 2-1 victory.<\/p>\n The game took nearly four hours to complete due to the extra breaks needed to sweep off the accumulation of snow on the outdoor playing surface. Jamestown was in a blizzard warning for the duration of the game and snowfall continued through the night.<\/p>\n After a scoreless first period that saw Minot State outshoot Jamestown 12-10, the JImmies got the first goal of the game at the 18:51 mark of the second period. Cole McKechney<\/a> (SR\/Calgary, Alberta) scored his sixth of the season with assists by Jeremy McNeil<\/a> (SR\/Calgary, Alberta) and Johnson.<\/p>\n The Beavers got the game-tying tally 2:19 into the third period off the stick of Justin Metcalf. Assists went to Riley Vautour and Landyn Cochrane.<\/p>\n UJ had all four shots in the overtime period but Kurtz was able to turn them away and send the game to a shootout.<\/p>\n Jamestown went first in the shootout and\u00a0fell behind 1-0 after the first round. After missing their first two attempts and needing a goal to stay alive, McKechney came through to level the shootout at 1-1.<\/p>\n Twenty-one consecutive combined stops by Brouwer and Kurtz kept the shootout knotted at one.<\/p>\n Johnson began the 14th round with a shot that deflected off of Kurtz’s left pad and trickled into the back of the net, making it 2-1. Brouwer then denied O’Connor on the ensuing Minot State attempt and put an end to the marathon contest.<\/p>\n Brouwer made 25 saves while Kurtz stopped 28. The Jimmies were 0-for-4 on the power play while the Beavers were 0-for-3.<\/p>\n The Jimmies are back in action against Minot State next weekend with a home-and-home series beginning in Minot on Friday.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hockey Day ND At the UJ\u00a0 outdoor rink at Allen Field The 14th-ranked University of Jamestown hockey team defeated No.3 Minot State University 2-1 in a shootout Friday night at Allen Field as part of the second annual Hockey Day North Dakota.
