WHKY: ALB (1) at MRU (4)

The Mount Royal University women's hockey team defeated the University of Alberta Pandas 4-1 on Saturday night.
 
The game started off very tight, with neither team giving an inch. After going on the powerplay, Courtney Kollman got one past Pandas' netminder Halle Oswald to give the Cougars a 1-0 lead.
 
The officials were calling a tight game as both teams experienced many trips to the box. Special teams were a big contributor to how this contest went.
 
"Two great teams were going at it tonight; certainly, some emotions get the better of both teams at different times in the game," said Cougars' head coach Scott Rivett. "I thought we did a pretty good job at maintaining our composure and staying disciplined."
 
The Pandas were able to apply some pressure, but Cougars goalie Kaitlyn Ross shut the door on ALB.
 
After going on another powerplay, Emma Bergesen scored immediately with a blast from the point. The tally from Bergesen was a huge momentum shift for MRU.
 
In the third period, Aliya Jomha slid one past Oswald to push the game further out of reach.
 
Midway through the period, the Pandas finally got one past Ross with a deflection from a point shot. After deliberation from the officials, it was determined that the puck was hit with a high stick and the call on the ice was overturn and the game remained 3-0.
 
Emma Bergesen added an empty netter for MRU with just under three minutes to play.
 
ALB were able to break the shutout bid for Kaitlyn Ross. A hard point shot from Taylor Kezama riffled over Ross' shoulder. It wasn't enough for the Pandas and the game finished with a dominant 4-1 win for the Cougars.
