MARYLAND BLACK BEARS (9-10-4) vs. NEW JERSEY TITANS

After two heartbreaking overtime losses, the Black Bears meet a familiar foe in New Jersey, who they took on just two weekends ago. Though splitting the weekend in New Jersey was okay, the fact remains they want to get all four points, especially as tight as the East Division is currently. One of the biggest points that need to be addressed should be a little bit better on the defensive end of things and giving the goalies some support in the zone.

STEVENSON UNIVERSITY MUSTANGS D3 MEN (5-1-0) vs. ST. NORBERT COLLEGE and LAWRENCE UNIVERSITY

Currently on a three-game win streak, the Mustangs have been solid on both sides of the puck. The Mustangs have given up only 1.5 goals-per-game this season, while scoring 4.17; albeit in a small sample size. Half the games, the Mustangs have potted five or more goals, while their power play is working at a 31.5% clip– as well as accounting for almost half of their goals this year (12 PPG on 25 goal for the season).

STEVENSON UNIVERSITY MUSTANGS D3 WOMEN (4-2-1) at BOWDOIN COLLEGE and U-MASS BOSTON or WILLIAMS COLLEGE

Much like the men, the Stevenson women are on the three-game win streak as they go into the 13th Annual Codfish Bowl this weekend. Despite only scoring five goals in their first four games, the Mustangs have opened that up a bit, potting 13 goals in their last three games. Even though they have a somewhat younger team, they have bought into head coach Tori Emoff’s plan; which has show in this early season success.
