Beavers prepare to host Assiniboine for weekend series

The Minot State women’s hockey team is set to welcome Assiniboine College to Maysa Arena for a two-game home series this weekend as the Beavers look to build on their recent success. The Beavers enter the weekend with a 5-2-1 overall record. Their two losses came three weeks ago against Midland University, while their lone tie came against Sault College, a game Minot State ultimately won in a shootout. The Beavers are coming off a two-game home sweep of the University of Jamestown two weeks ago, earning victories by scores of 5-2 and 4-2, respectively. The Assiniboine Cougars, located approximately three hours north of the Magic City in Brandon, Manitoba, enter the weekend with a 7-1 overall record. Their only loss of the season came against the University of Wisconsin-Madison in mid-October, setting up a matchup between two teams that have enjoyed strong starts to their seasons. Leading the Beavers offensively is Kaitlyn Snyder, who has recorded five goals through eight games.
