St. Cloud State saw three of their athletes take home weekly conference honors last week. The first was St. Cloud State Women’s volleyball’s fifth-year outside hitter Kenzie Foley, who took home the NSIC Offensive Player of The Week award for the fifth time this season. On the hockey side, both men’s and women’s hockey goalie representatives took home their respective honors. Freshman goaltender Emilia Kyrkkö was named WCHA goaltender of the week after making a career high 45 saves against No. 2 Ohio State, leading the Huskies to a shootout victory against the defending national champions. On the men’s side, Sophmore goaltender Isak Posch was named NCHC goaltender of the week after being key in the Huskies split in Ann Arbor against the Wolverines.

9/25 & 9/26 – Huskies Take Four Points in Series With St. Thomas
St. Cloud State Women’s Hockey split their home & home series with the St. Thomas Tommies this past weekend. Game one would see the Huskies get off to a slow start, only scoring their first goal when junior forward Avery Farrell found the back of the net with a little over 5 minutes left in the game. The Huskies would be unable to find the net in both overtime and the subsequent shootout, surrendering the extra confrence point to St. Thomas.
However, SCSU would bounce back in game two. Back at the Brooks Center, the Huskies dominated the Tommies for the majority of the game, outshooting them 36-15, and winning the game 3-1. Freshman goaltender Emilia Kyrkkö did not allow an even strength goal, while Fifth year forward Abby Promersberger, redshirt sophomore forward Laura Zimmermann, and sophomore forward Greta Henderson all put pucks in the back of the net for SCSU.

St. Cloud State Men’s Hockey continued their hot to the season by sweeping the Augustana Vikings at the Brooks Center this past weekend. On Friday, the Huskies and Vikings would play a tightly contested, high-flying contest, but it would be St. Cloud native senior forward Nick Portz finding the back of the net twice in the Huskies 4-3 win.
For game two, it would be the two Husky defensemen that share the same name to power the St. Cloud offense. Huskies captain Josh Luedtke would score late in the first to give the Huskies the lead and transfer Josh Zinger would add his second goal of the weekend to give the Huskies the lead for good. Sophmore goaltender Isak Posch was strong in net for the Huskies, stopping 26/27 shots in the 2-1 win.
