UW-Stout Defeats Visiting Lake Forest, 4-2, on Saturday
Foresters' six-game winning streak halted

MENONONIE, WI - UW-Stout broke a 1-1 tie with two second period goals and held on for a 4-2 win over visiting Lake Forest College on Saturday (January 20th) in Northern Collegiate Hockey Association men's action.

Lake Forest (11-5-2, 3-4-0 NCHA) had their six-game winning streak snapped, while Stout (11-7-1, 5-3-0 NCHA) moved into a three-way tie for second place in the NCHA. Lake Forest is in sixth place, just four points out of second place.

After Stout's Nate Legler and Lake Forest's Adrian Wong (Richmond, British Columbia) exchanged first period goals, Stout outscored Lake Forest three goals to one over the final two periods, including two second period scores, to claim the 4-2 win. 

Bill Boyes's (Bright's Grove, Ontario) second goal of the weekend pulled the Foresters within a goal at the 13:06 mark of the third period, but Derek Nichols answered two minutes later for Stout.

Justin Wiskie notched 36 saves for Stout, while Mason Black (Smith Falls, Ontario) had 33 saves for the Foresters. Black recorded 70 saves and a 93.3% save percentage in the two games this weekend.

Lake Forest will return to action this Tuesday (January 23rd) when they travel to Stevens Point, WI to face UW-Stevens Pont, who sits two points ahead of the Foresters in the league standing, at 7:30.
