While no ranked teams play other ranked teams this weekend, don’t expect the competition to be on the light side.<\/p>\n

In fact, with all conferences on the ice, fans of D-III women’s hockey have reason to celebrate this weekend.<\/p>\n

As always, USCHO Women’s Editor Candace Horgan and USCHO Women’s Writer Matt Mackinder do their best to pick the games they deem important on this weekend’s docket.<\/p>\n

Friday, Nov. 20<\/strong><\/p>\n

Salve Regina at No. 7 Norwich<\/strong>
\nCandace:<\/strong> Salve is hot, but Norwich is Norwich. Norwich 3-1<\/strong>
\nMatt:<\/strong> While Salve is 4-1-0 and unranked, that could sure change with a win over Norwich. I’m a sucker for picking upsets, so let’s do that here. Salve Regina 3-2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Friday, Nov. 20<\/strong><\/p>\n

No. 4 Adrian at St. Scholastica<\/strong>
\nCandace:<\/strong> Adrian should rebound from its last disappointing outing. Adrian 4-2<\/strong>
\nAdrian:<\/strong> St. Scholastica is 3-2-0 after sweeping St. Norbert last weekend and Adrian proved it was mortal last weekend by losing to Lake Forest. Both teams have something to prove here, but it’s St. Scholastica<\/strong> with a hard-fought 5-3 win<\/strong> that is iced on a late empty-netter.<\/p>\n

Friday-Saturday<\/strong><\/p>\n

Stevenson at Endicott<\/strong>
\nCandace:<\/strong> I love home ice for these picks. Endicott 2-1, 2-1<\/strong>
\nMatt:<\/strong> The battle of the unbeaten as both teams are 6-0-0 heading into this weekend series. Endicott goalie Vendela Jonsson is 4-0-0 and has yet to even allow a goal so far. What gives here? I say Stevenson<\/strong> dents the armor with a 2-1 win Friday<\/strong> before Endicott<\/strong> regroups for a 3-0 win Saturday<\/strong>, yes, with Jonsson getting the goose egg.<\/p>\n

Friday-Saturday<\/strong><\/p>\n

Trinity at No. 5 Middlebury<\/strong>
\nCandace:<\/strong> A classic NESCAC game goes to the home team. Middlebury 3-2, 2-1<\/strong>
\nMatt:<\/strong> Middlebury and Trinity have yet to play a game this season, but will get after it this weekend. It’d be easy to call a split here with both teams probably working out opening-night kinks, and that works for me. Friday, it’s Trinity 4-2<\/strong> and then Saturday, same score, reverse the teams.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
