No. 3 Michigan State rallies past No. 1 Minnesota; Denver splits with CC; Michigan Tech scores nine - CHS 12-14-24

It’s the #CollegeHockey Scoreboard Show for December 14, 2024. I did NOT go to In-and-Out Burger today, but the night is anything but young. There’s still time. But there’s no double doubles here, no analysis, no breakdowns. It’s JUST. THE. SCORES. We begin with the men. I’m also standing outside, so let’s get this done as quickly as possible. No. 3 Michigan State scored four third-period goals to rally past No. 1 Minnesota 5-3 in the Big Ten, with Isaac Howard netting two for the Spartans. In the NCHC, No. 4 Denver split the weekend home-and-home series with No. 10 Colorado College after a 2-1 win, thanks to Cale Ashcroft’s game-winner. No. 6 Michigan finally ended its scoreless streak as Michael Hage's overtime game-winner salvaged a split with visiting Wisconsin. Not going to argue over what constitutes a split here. I know what you're saying, Wisconsin still got four of the six points on the weekend. All Hail Pairwise. Jake Schmaltz lifted No. 16 North Dakota to a 4-3 overtime win and a home sweep of No. 9 St. Cloud State in the NCHC. That goal song was stuck in my head the rest of the day. Josh Groll’s overtime goal secured No. 12 Minnesota State’s 3-2 victory over Lake Superior State in the CCHA, marking six straight wins for the Mavericks, who are unbeaten in their last 11. Oh, you didn't know ... this is a Gunnarwolfe Fontaine stan account. Fontaine scores his seventh of the year as No. 15 Ohio State beat Notre Dame 3-1Robert Morris defeated Canisius 5-2 in Atlantic Hockey action, while Michigan Tech erupted for six third-period goals to dominate Bemidji State 9-5 in the CCHA, with Elias Jansson and Logan Morrell each scoring twice. Bowling Green edged Northern Michigan 4-3 in another CCHA contest. In Hockey East, Merrimack beat Northeastern 4-1. Omaha slipped past Lindenwood 2-1 in non-conference play, while RPI and Mercyhurst tied 3-3 before RPI won in the shootout. LIU crushed Stonehill 6-1 for its seventh win in nine games, while Stonehill dropped its fifth straight. Vermont defeated Union 3-2, and New Hampshire topped the USNTDP 6-2 in an exhibition. Three games on the women’s side - Maine edged Merrimack 3-2 in Hockey East women’s action, while Robert Morris took down LIU 3-1 in a non-conference matchup. Minnesota State outlasted Bemidji State 5-3 in  the WCHA. I’m Jason Bryant @jasonmbryant on the socials and that’s your College Hockey Scoreboard for December 14, 2024.Drive thru is open here in Hanford, California. The Sota Pod is dedicated to covering anything & EVERYTHING when it comes to hockey or craft beer in the great state of Minnesota. The Sota Pod (Apple Podcasts): https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-sota-pod/id1495602444YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thesotapod
