The Ohio State Buckeyes scored three goals in a 7:19 span over the first and second periods to kick-start a 5-1 victory over the Bemidji State women Saturday at the OSU Ice Rink.<\/p>\n
Heather Farrell got the Buckeyes on the board with a shorthanded goal at 18:51 of the first period, getting past BSU goaltender Bre Dedrickson who had come out of the net to play a puck and effectively scoring an empty-net goal.<\/p>\n
The Buckeyes then picked up goals at 2:32 and 6:12 of the second to take a 3-0 lead, and from there would cruise to the victory.<\/p>\n
Farrell notched her first career hat trick for the Buckeyes. In addition to her shorthanded tally in the first, she picked up goals at 6:12 of the second period and 2:26 of the third. It is the third hat trick allowed by BSU this year, and second in the team’s last three games.<\/p>\n
Kerri McEwen tallied BSU’s lone goal of the night, picking up an even-strength score at 9:14 of the second with an assist from Guylaine Hache.<\/p>\n
After allowing three goals in a losing effort last night, OSU goaltender Melissa Glaser saved 26 of 27 shots faced and improved to 8-4-2 on the season. Dedrickson saved 26 shots, but allowed five goals in the losing effort. She falls to 6-6-4 on the season.<\/p>\n
After Friday night’s game saw four of five goals come on the power play, Saturday the penalty-killers dominated. BSU went 0-for-7 on the power play and Ohio State was also shut out, going 0 for 2.<\/p>\n
Bemidji State falls to 7-7-4 with the loss and sees its WCHA record fall to 5-6-3. Ohio State improves to 10-7-3 overall, and moves back into a tie with BSU in the WCHA standings at 5-6-3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
