Minnesota Duluth 2, UND 0 -- Cole Koepke 4:41. UND defenseman Ethan Frisch winds up for a one-timer, but his stick snaps and Koepke goes on a clean breakaway. He beats Scheel on the stick side for Duluth's second goal in 1:20.
Minnesota Duluth 2, UND 1 -- Collin Adams (Jasper Weatherby, Shane Pinto) 18:19 (ex). UND pulls the goalie down two and gets one back when Adams banks one in off Minnesota Duluth goalie Zach Stejskal from behind the net.
