(Fraser, MI) The Concordia men's hockey team completed their first sweep in conference play this season, defeating the Rochester Christian Warriors 6-4. The Cardinals improve to 4-9-1 overall and 2-6 in WHAC play.

Kolton Horn started the party, beating the RCU goalie to the far post on a wrap-around assisted by Nicholas Twombley to make the score 1-0. Braden Yurkunas found the back of the net on a rebound for his first Division One goal, assisted by Owen Gouin and Ross Eaton. After a Bryce Iott breakaway ending in a Rochester hooking penalty, the Cards struck 19 seconds into the power play when Carson Ediger found Jackson Blough high in the zone for a shot, which had a helpful deflection from Twombley for the goal. Blough wasn't finished finding himself a high slot rebound off of Ediger's shot, which he buried to score 4-0 at the end of the 1st period.

Rochester Christian kicked off the 2nd with an odd-man rush, leading to their first goal of the game. A relentless forecheck led Jack Kallsen to spring McCarthy Clark below the hash marks with a mini one-on-one with the goalie, leading to a 5-1 CUAA lead.

CUAA ran into some penalty trouble, including an extended stay on a five-on-three penalty kill, which resulted in RCU tightening the game up to 5-4, two goals from Kyle Hauer and one from Shaun Zatelli. After a CUAA timeout, the Cards got the puck out of their zone, leading to a two-on-one when Twombley found Iott for the dagger to end the game 6-4 in favor of the Cardinals.

Concordia faces a quick turnaround as they hit the road to take on Division II Schoolcraft College at Mike Modano Arena in Northville on Wednesday, November 6th, at 7:35 p.m. CUAA returns to WHAC action on the road versus #22 Indiana Tech on Friday, November 8th, at 7:30 p.m.
