LAKE FOREST, Ill. - The Forester men’s hockey team dropped a pair of Northern Collegiate Hockey Association games at home over the weekend (November 30-December 2). Lake Forest fell 3-0 to UW-Superior Friday night and 2-1 to the College of St. Scholastica on Sunday. The game against St. Scholastica was originally scheduled for Saturday night but was postponed due to a power failure on the College’s South Campus. The Foresters are now 1-9-1 overall and winless in four league contests. Superior, the 13th-ranked team in the nation, raised its over record to 5-1-4 and NCHA mark to 2-0-1. St. Scholastica is now 3-5-2 overall and 1-2-1 in conference play.

Superior scored what turned out to be the official game-winning goal four minutes and 35 seconds into Friday’s contest. The Yellowjackets added a power play score with 1:02 remaining in the second period and an empty net goal with nine seconds to play in the contest.

Forester junior goaltender Brandon Kohuch (Windsor, Ontario/Chatham Maroons) stopped 38 of the 40 (95%) shots on goal he faced in the game. Classmate Scott Campbell (Bloomfield, Ontario/Elmira Sugar Kings) tallied 45 saves in 47 chances (95.7%) on Sunday.

After a scoreless opening period on Sunday, St. Scholastica took the lead at 6:50 in the second. The Foresters tied the game at 12:38 in the period on freshman Peter Pfeffer’s (Farmington Hills, Mich./ Walpole Stars) second goal of the season. He was assisted by junior Mike Kneeland (Calgary, Alberta/ Calgary Royals).

The Saints scored the game winner – a shorthanded goal – with 62 seconds left in the contest.

Lake Forest will close out the 2007 portion of its schedule next weekend (December 7-8) with two more NCHA home games. The team will host UW-River Falls Friday night at 7:30 and UW-Stout the following afternoon at 3:00.
