OMAHA, Neb. - The Bowling Green State University hockey team dropped a 7-0 decision Saturday night to Nebraska-Omaha inside the Qwest Center in a Central Collegiate Hockey Association contest.
UNO got on the board early, despite the heroics of sophomore Jimmy Spratt. The Mavericks skated in on a 2-on-1 just over a minute into the contest. A UNO forward fired a blast just inside the blueline with the rebound deflecting onto the tape of Jeric Agosta, who had an open net to shoot at. Spratt threw his right pad towards the net and shocked the UNO crowd with the save.
Less than 30 seconds later UNO deflected a shot past Spratt to take an early 1-0 advantage at the 1:43 mark. The Mavs extended their lead to 2-0 at the 9:35 mark with an even-strength goal.
Nebraska-Omaha scored three more goals in the second period and a pair in the third for the 7-0 final score.
For the game UNO held a 44-28 shot advantage and went 2-for-9 on the power play. Bowling Green was held scoreless on six attempts with the man-advantage.
As if a trip to Omaha, Nebraska isn't enough, the Orange and Brown hit the road again next week, for a pair of games with the Wildcats of Northern Michigan. Both games are set for 7:05 p.m.
