  When, Tech comes to play-- They are Very good!!!   Tech came to play on
Saturday, but was just outplayed by UND on Sunday.  UND came out hard and
was quite fired up dominating the first period and off and on for the next 2.
UND desrved the win and got it.
 
  They had a bit of help from Schmit (this weekends ref).  MTU had at the
most -5- power plays while UND had somwhere around 13 to 15.  He made
some real idiotic calls behind the play (Minor holds and pushes behind
the play, that don't result in blown goal opportunties, should not be
called---it slows up the game). The majors holds and slashes etc. should
be called, but not silly little holding and hooking penalties behind the
play. Wynne deserved what he got, his slash started a line brawl and it
was about time for a Tech power play since it was the 3rd period.
Inconsistent reffing is synonomous with the Wcha.
 
  UND did a great job honoring their six seniors today, nice to see them
honor the parents as well.  The parents should get a bit of spotlight for
once, as they 've helped them get to where they are at.
