 Although lately, I've had this problem

I felt it way too much when I was wearing kids' pants (there seemed to be
NO padding where I was falling) but am much happier and healthier with a
girdle.  Ron, why do you not like the girdle/pants?  I also move much
better in them.  Our bodies are all so different - I encourage people to
borrow equipment in the beginning and try out different things, get a feel
for how you play and skate in them, rather than buying something that
doesn't work for you and being stuck with it.  Our women's league has a
lending library of stuff and also "calls in" extra equipment to lend out
when a new player needs it.  I would love to try lots of different shoulder
pads. I've never worn one that fits well, women's or children's!  Good
equipment is probably more influential in a beginner's play than for an
experienced player.

THIS WEEK-Sixth-ranked Minnesota ends a 25-day layoff Friday when the Gophers 
host the U.S. Select Team in an exhibition game, beginning at 7:05 p.m. at 
Mariucci Arena.

GOPHER REWIND-Minnesota used late goals twice to defeat seventh-ranked 
Dartmouth, 5-4 and 4-3, at home, Dec. 11-12, in its most recent action. The star
of the weekend was junior Winny Brodt (Roseville, Minn./Roseville Area), who 
helped account for eight of the teamÍs nine goals.

In the series-opening 5-4 win, Brodt registered a goal and four assists for a 
career-high five points. After the Gophers fell behind 1-0 in the opening 
period, her goal at 8:39 of the second period evened the score. She then 
assisted on the next four Minnesota goals and her shot from the left point set 
up a rebound goal by junior Courtney Kennedy (Woburn, Mass./Buckingham Browne & 
Nichols) with 10.1 seconds left to win the game.

Minnesota led 3-1 and 4-2 in the game before Dartmouth scored twice in the third
period, including Jen Wiehn's goal with 42.6 seconds remaining after goalie 
Meghan Cahill had been pulled for an extra attacker. Junior Nadine Muzerall 
(Mississauga, Ontario/Kimball Union Academy) and Ambria Thomas (Fairbanks, 
Alaska/West Valley) and frosh Ronda Curtin (Roseville, Minn./Roseville Area) 
also scored during the Gophers' four-goal second period.

In the finale, Dartmouth jumped out to an early lead again, grabbing a 2-0 lead 
12 minutes into the game. Sophomore Laura Slominski (Burnsville, 
Minn./Burnsville) scored at 12:51 to get Minnesota on the board but the Big 
Green regained their two-goal lead with 3:07 to play in the second period. 
Muzerall scored a power-play goal two minutes later to cut the lead to one and 
Thomas added a power-play goal at 4:34 of the final period, setting up another 
dramatic finish, which saw Curtin score the game-winner with 1:50 left to play.

U.S. SELECT TEAM RECENTLY-The U.S. Select posted a perfect 5-0 record to win the
Christmas Tournament in Lake Placid, N.Y., Dec. 27-Jan. 2.

Long-time captain Cammi Granato, the only U.S. player to compete at all-five 
IIHF World Championships, paced the Americans with seven goals and 14 points in 
the tournament.

Goalies Erin Whitten and Laurie Belliveau allowed just one goal in five games, 
combining for four shutouts.

On its current tour, the U.S. Select team is 10-3-0, having lost three times to 
Canada at the 1999 Three Nations Cup. They have beaten Princeton, Harvard and 
Dartmouth on their current tour and will also play Wisconsin (Jan. 8), New 
Hampshire (Jan. 19), Brown (Jan. 22) and Providence (Feb. 19).

EVERYONE KNOWS IT WINNY-With eight points on the weekend, Winny Brodt blew past 
the 100-point mark for her career and regained the league lead for scoring by 
defense.

Her assist on Ronda Curtin's goal Saturday was her 100th point. She scored 34 
points in 39 games at New Hampshire before transferring to Minnesota last 
season. In her second season with the Gophers, Brodt now has 20 goals and 70 
points in 49 games at Minnesota.

The Gophers' leading scorer with 27 points in 17 games, Brodt also leads the 
nation in scoring by defense and is tied for second in power-play points (10).

THERE'S SOMETHING FAMILIAR-When Winny Brodt takes the ice on Friday, she'll see 
some familiar faces on the visiting bench.

During the Gophers' break, Brodt competed with the U.S. Select team at the 
Christmas Tournament in Lake Placid, N.Y., where the team went 5-0 to claim the 
tournament title. In the five games, she tallied a goal and two assists.

TOMMY, CAN YOU HEAR ME„With her short-handed goal in the 5-4 win over Dartmouth,
Ambria Thomas has now scored three in her last seven games. The three 
short-handed goals in a season are a new school record and she also holds the 
school's career record with five.

THE BUZZ ON MUZ„Nadine Muzerall has proven to be a clutch performer over the 
past three seasons and the statistics back that statement.

She has scored 18 game-winning goals and 13 first goals in three seasons. Not 
only that, she has scored goals in 50 of the 77 games she has played. The 
Gophers have a .900 winning percentage in those games, posting a 44-4-2 record.

ON THE FIRING LINE-Center Nadine Muzerall, left wing Ambria Thomas and right 
wing Laura Slominski played together as a line for the first time this season 
against Dartmouth and wasted little time in getting synchronized with one 
another.

In the opening game, the line combined for two goals, five points and 10 shots 
on goal. The following day, they scored three goals and seven points, amassing 
23 of the teamÍs 41 shots on goal. Slominski registered a team season-high nine 
shots in the game.

On the season, the trio has amassed 32 goals and 71 points in 17 games. With 188
shots on goal, they have accounted for 36.9 percent of the team's total of 509.

POWER SURGE„After going 0-for-8 on the power play with just one shot on goal in 
its previous three games, Minnesota's power play got going in its final game of 
1999.

The Gophers launched 11 shots during four power-play opportunities, spanning 
seven minutes, 24 seconds, while scoring a pair of goals in the 4-3 win. They 
had six shots on their final power play, which resulted in Ambria Thomas' 
game-tying goal.

NATURAL BORN KILLERS„Minnesota's penalty kill has been one of the team's 
strengths since the middle of November.

The Gophers have allowed just two goals on their opponents' last 48 power-play 
chances. During that time, Minnesota has scored five short-handed goals.

FIRST GOAL WINS...USUALLY„The Gophers allowed the first goal in both games 
against Dartmouth, but came back to win, giving them a 4-5-0 when doing so, 
compared to 8-0-0 when they score first.

In three seasons, Minnesota has been scored upon first just 22 times and is 
7-13-2 in those games. The Gophers have scored first in 61 of 84 games all-time,
posting a 55-3-3 record in those games.

SHE'S THE BOSS„Now in her third season behind the Minnesota bench and 10th as a 
head coach, Laura Halldorson has established herself as one of the nation's 
premier coaches in women's hockey, sporting a 121-91-15 overall college record 
and a 62-16-6 mark at Minnesota.

She began her head coaching career at Colby College, where she led the White 
Mules, one of only two non-Division I schools at the time in the 12-team Eastern
Collegiate Athletic Conference, to a 12-9-1 overall record in 1995-96, earning 
ECAC Co-Coach of the Year honors as well as being named the New England Hockey 
Writers' Coach of the Year. While at Colby, she also recruited and coached U.S. 
National Team members Meaghan Sittler and Barb Gordon.

At the national level, Halldorson was the assistant coach for the gold 
medal-winning team at the 1998 USA Hockey Women's Festival and was the head 
coach of the silver medal-winning team at the 1999 event. Last December, she 
served as an assistant for the U.S. National team that competed in the Three 
Nations Cup in Finland. She was also an assistant for the National Under-22 team
this past summer.

A native of Plymouth, Minn., and a 1981 graduate of Wayzata High School, 
Halldorson played four years at Princeton, where she was a co-captain and 
all-conference performer while leading the Tigers to three Ivy League titles. 
She graduated from Princeton in 1985 with a degree in psychology.

A member of the 1987 U.S. National Women's Team and three national club 
championship teams with the Minnesota Checkers, Halldorson returned to her alma 
mater in 1987 to begin her collegiate coaching career as an assistant.

BEHIND THE U.S. BENCH„The architect of the current U.S. Women's program is Ben 
Smith, who guided the team to the gold medal at the 1998 Olympics.

Smith became the first full-time coach of the U.S. Women's National and Olympic 
Team in 1996. He received numerous awards for his efforts in leading the team to
the 1998 Olympic gold medal, including the U.S. Olympic Committee's Coach of the
Year Award. In March, Smith and the Olympic Team received the Lester Patrick 
Award for outstanding service to hockey in the United States.

A 1968 graduate of Harvard, Smith was an assistant men's coach at Yale for five 
years and at Boston University for nine years before taking on the head men's 
job at Northeastern, where he led the Huskies to an NCAA Tournament appearance 
in 1994.

IT'S HOME„The home of Gopher Women's Hockey is Mariucci Arena (9,700). One of 
the finest college hockey facilities in the country, Mariucci Arena will be 
Minnesota's home until the new women's hockey facility, scheduled to open in 
2001, is completed.

Known as one of the toughest arenas in the nation on visiting teams, the Gophers
are 30-8-5 in the six-year-old building.

UP NEXT„Minnesota returns from its long layoff to play five games in nine days, 
beginning with Friday's game versus the U.S. Select Team.

The Gophers will be at Bemidji State for a pair of games next Monday and 
Tuesday, at 7:05 p.m. both nights, and will follow that series three days later 
with two games, Jan. 14-15, at Minnesota State, Mankato.

THIS WEEK: Wisconsin (10-8-2, 7-4-1 WCHA) experiences some of the best women's ice hockey in the world when it plays host to the U.S. Women's Select Team at the Blue Line Ice Center in Fond du Lac, Wis. Boasting 10 members from the 1998 gold medal winning USA Olympic Team, the U.S. Women's Select Team recently won the Holiday Tournament in Lake Placid, N.Y., with a 5-0 win over Sweden in the finals. The game between Wisconsin and Team USA will take place on Jan. 8 at the Blue Line Ice Center in Fond du Lac, Wis., with face off slated for 7:00 p.m.

DIRECTIONS TO BLUE LINE ICE CENTER: Take Hwy 151 North to Fond du Lac. When entering Fond du Lac you will have stop lights at Rolling Meadows Drive, Pioneer Road, Hickory Street, and Ninth Street. At Ninth Street (4th Light), take a right (East). Continue on Ninth Street until Fond du Lac Avenue. Ninth Street ends at Fond du Lac Avenue (Hwy 45). Take a right (South-East) and go about .2 of a mile. The rink is on the right (light gray building with blue).

EXHIBITIONISTS: The Badgers game with the U.S. Women's Select Team will be the second exhibition game in a row for Wisconsin. The UW faced the defending intercollegiate champions of Canada in Concordia (Quebec) during its final game at the Dartmouth College Holiday Invitational in its last action. All games against Canadian teams count as exhibition games.

TEAM USA: Fresh off a holiday tournament victory in Lake Placed, N.Y., the U.S. Women's Select Team plays a pair of WCHA teams. Team USA faces Minnesota on Friday night in Minneapolis before heading to Fond du Lac, Wis., for its game with the Badgers. The squad boasts ten Olympic gold medalists from the 1998 Olympic Winter Games held in Nagano, Japan.

Team USA has played three college teams thus far this season. It beat Princeton 6-1, Harvard 9-2 and Dartmouth 6-1. The team also played in the Three Nations Cup in Quebec, Canada from Nov. 28-Dec. 5, where it took the silver medal behind host Canada. The team beat Finland twice and lost to Canada three times in the tournament. One of its losses came in overtime, while the other loss, in the finals of the tournament, came in a shootout. Team USA hosted a holiday tournament Dec. 27-Jan. 2 in Lake Placid, N.Y. The Americans went undefeated beating Russia twice and Sweden three times for the title. 

SCORING HER FIRST OF THE SEASON...: With a power-play goal in the second period against Dartmouth at the Dartmouth College Holiday Invitational, Julie Ortenzio (Fr., Eden Prairie, Minn.) scored her first goal of the season. After Kendra Antony's (Fr., Yorkton, Sask.) point shot rebounded off the post, Ortenzio jumped on the puck and fired it home for her fourth point of the season.

THE SHERMANATOR: Natascha Sherman (Jr., Seattle, Wash.) recorded her first collegiate goal with a deflection in the Badger game against Dartmouth at the Dartmouth College Holiday Invitational. Moments before the goal, the junior beat Dartmouth goaltender Kate Cochrane, but her shot rang off the crossbar.
	Sherman now has a goal and four assists in 12 games. Her .42 points per game average ranks seventh on the team.

ROSE GARDEN: First-year defender Roseann Meyer (Portsmouth, R.I.) received her first extended playing time of the season at the Dartmouth College Holiday Invitational and responded with her first career point. Meyer earned her assist when her shot from the right point was deflected off the stick of Natascha Sherman and past Dartmouth's goaltender.

SETTING THE PACE: First-year defender Sis Paulsen (Fr., Eau Claire, Wis.) extended her team-record point-scoring streak to eight games with an assist against No. 7 Dartmouth on Dec. 29. The point gave her 12 in the eight games with four goals and eight assists. Paulsen had her streak snapped the following day against No. 1 Northeastern. 
	The nation's second-leading scorer for defenders has eight goals and 16 assists for 24 points overall. She ranks second in the WCHA in overall games, and third among defense scoring in WCHA action with five goals and 10 assists for 15 points.

WHEN THE GOING GETS TOUGH: Frosh Kendra Antony (Yorkton, Sask.) has led the Badgers in scoring since the first goal scored of the season. After scoring the first three goals in school history, including the first power-play tally, Antony has maintained her place at the top of the Wisconsin scoring chart. Now through 20 games, Antony has 12 goals and 15 assists for 27 points. She had an assist against No. 7 Dartmouth and has yet to go longer than a game without registering a point. Her 27 points puts her fifth in the WCHA in scoring (all games) and she ranks in the top ten in five other scoring categories. Antony also ranks in the top ten in six categories covering just conference action.	
	Antony has been especially productive against ranked competition. In nine games against ranked opponents, Antony has six goals and five assists for 11 points. The next closest Badgers are Sis Paulsen and Kelly Kegley who both have four points in seven games against ranked opponents.

ONE FOR YOU, ONE FOR ME: The Badgers boast four skaters with at least a point per game average. Kendra Antony leads the quartet with 27 points in 20 games (1.35 points per game). Sis Paulsen (Eau Claire, Wis.) follows with 24 points in 18 games (1.33). Michelle Sikich, with 21 points in 18 games (1.17), and Kelly Kegley, with 16 points in 14 games (1.14), complete the group. 

DEFENSE IN NAME ONLY: Defenders own three of the top four spots on the Wisconsin scoring chart. Sis Paulsen leads the defensive corps and is second on the team with eight goals and 16 assists. Michelle Sikich (So., Apple Valley, Minn.) ranks third with 12 goals and nine assists. Kerry Weiland (Fr., Palmer, Alaska) rounds out the trio with seven goals and 10 assists.
	As a whole, Badger defenders account for 30 of the teams 61 goals. The blue-liners also account for 42 of 86 assists and 73 of 147 total points.

THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE: The Badgers notched their first win in program history with a 2-1 victory at Ohio State on Friday, Oct. 15. Michelle Sikich (So., Apple Valley, Minn.) tallied the game-winner at 9:52 of the third period and Chanda Gunn (Huntington Beach, Calif.) made 30 saves to earn the win. 

IF YOU PLAY IT, THEY WILL COME: The Wisconsin women's ice hockey team opened up its inaugural season on Friday, Oct. 8. Gov. Tommy Thompson, Olympic Gold Medalists Cammi Granato and Karyn Bye, U.S. National Team coach Ben Smith and other VIPs attended. The second-largest women's collegiate ice hockey crowd attended. 3,892 came to the Kohl Center for the opening night. 
	The largest crowd to attend a women's collegiate ice hockey game came together on Nov. 2, 1997 when Minnesota held its inaugural game against Augsburg at Mariucci Arena in Minneapolis, Minn. 6,854 people showed up and saw the Golden Gophers shutout Augsburg 8-0.

SIGNINGS: The Badgers announced the signing of their first three recruits for the class of 2004 on Nov. 18. Defender Nicole Uliasz (Perkasie, Penn.), forward Stephanie Millar (Hudson, Wis.) and forward Meghan Hunter (Oil Springs, Ontario) signed national letters of intent last week and will attend Wisconsin starting the fall semester of 2000.

HEAD COACH JULIE SASNER:  Head coach Julie Sasner (Harvard, 1988) is in her first year with the Badgers after spending six years at the helm of Cornell. The Badgers first coach sports a 10-8-2 record behind the bench for Wisconsin, and is 63-69-8 lifetime. She led Big Red to a 53-61-6 mark and the 1995-96 team to its first Ivy League title since 1990 with an 8-1-1 record. She also directed Cornell to a 15-8-3 record in 1997-98 and a 16-7-2 mark during the 1995-96 season. She was named the 1995 Coach of the Year by the American Women's Hockey Association. 
	A member of the first U.S. Women's National Team in 1990, she has since helped coach the team at the 1999 International Ice Hockey Federation Women's World Championship. She was also the head coach for the U.S. Women's Select Team that competed in the Three Nations Cup held in Finland in December of 1998. She earned her first U.S. head coaching position, leading the U.S. Women's National Team to a silver medal at the Pacific Women's Hockey Championship in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1996.

HER ASSISTANTS:  Trina Bourget (New Hampshire, 1994), Tracy Cornell (Cornell, 1997) and Mike Dibble (Wisconsin, 1978) will serve as the Badger assistant coaches for the inaugural season. 
	Bourget coached the past two years at Division III Sacred Heart University and led the Pioneers to the No. 8 national ranking in just the third year of the program's existence. Named the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference's Coach of the year for her team's 15-4-3 mark for the 1998-99 season, Bourget was named runner-up for the American Women's Hockey Coaches Association Coach of the Year Award. Bourget spent her playing days with the University of New Hampshire.
	Cornell coached Cushing Academy in Ashburnham, Mass., to a 24-4-2 record last year, the most successful season in school history. Her team captured second during the regular season and advanced to the NEPSAC Championship. Her playing experiences include four years at Cornell and one as a professional player in Switzerland with the SC Reinach Lions. While at Cornell, she was a two-time All-Ivy League player and a co-captain her senior year.
	Dibble coached Sun Prairie High School from1980-86. While coaching Sun Prairie, he also served as the coaching program director for the the state of Wisconsin's WAHA from 1979-86. In 1987, he became the Central District coaching director, a position held until 1992. At the national level, Dibble was a part of the original staff of USA Hockey's National Goaltender Camp and coached the U.S. National Midget Team in 1986. Most recently he served as coach of the U.S. National 17-Selects in 1994. The former men's hockey goaltending standout ranks on numerous Badger top-10 lists, was the Badgers' 1975 MVP and helped the squad to the 1977 NCAA Championship. A draft pick of the New York Islanders in 1974, the Minneapolis, Minn., native was the alternate goalie for the 1980 U.S. Olympic Team.
