Women's Hockey upended by Schmidgall, Bulldogs
Duluth, Minn. - The No. 5 Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs scored four goals in
the first 12 minutes and cruised to a 14-1 win over the Wisconsin women's hockey
team at the Duluth Entertainment and Convention Center Saturday.
Bridget Buchholz (Waupun, Wis.) tallied the lone goal for the Badgers at
12:11 of the first period. The unassisted goal was the fourth of the season for
the sophomore forward.
For UMD, Jenny Schmidgall was the story of the game with five goals and
four assists. With her nine-point performance, she now has 30 goals and 34
assists to lead the nation with 65 points.
A UW timeout halfway through the first period wasn't enough to cool down
the Bulldogs who burst out to a 4-0 lead within the first 12 minutes of the
game. Michelle McAteer, Maria Rooth, Erin Nagurski and Navada Russel each
recorded first-period goals en route to the four-goal lead.
The Badgers answered back with Buchholz' tally, before Schmidgall scored
her first of the night with a power-play goal at 14:36 to make it a 5-1 game.
UMD added six more in the second and three in the third to finish out the
game.
Jennifer Neary (Dallas, Texas) stopped 22 shots in just over a period and
a half of action. Theresa Hilleman (Richland Center, Wis.) relieved Neary and
made 17 saves the rest of the way. Amanda Tapp stopped 13 saves to earn the
victory for the Bulldogs.
"They totally dominated us tonight from the get-go," coach Julie Sasner
said. "We know they are speedy and skillful and tonight they just overpowered
us. They've got so many ways to beat you as a team and as individuals."
Wisconsin (10-10-2 overall, 7-6-1 WCHA) returns home next week and hosts
Ohio State at the Dane County Coliseum. Both games of the Jan. 22-23 series
start at 1:05 p.m.

It has been mentioned that this is a "boy thing". I
would offer the opportunity to check the box score in
the Minnesota-Duluth and Wisconsin game yesterday. In
a game where the coach allows certain players to pad
their stats in a 14 to 1 game, the emotions come to
any competitive athlete, whether they be a male or
female. Check what happens to the penalty minutes in
the third period when the game is over.
The rumour about some players changing schools to a
program, where the coach, would allow for personal
gains and not team gains or at least respect for
opponents, may be supported from the statistical
analysis of the box score. When a team is up by 12
goals and you continue to use the number one power
play, since your leading scorer didn't get enough
points in the game the day before, does not show
respect for the athletes on the other team let alone
those on your own team who may not get as many
opportunities in most games.

I'm not so sure... my son played lacrosse through high school and into
college, and they do exactly that - whack, whack, whack, whack, aiming for
the same unprotected spot (and lacrosse players have far more unprotected
skin than hockey players) that they've been pounding and tenderizing all
throughout the game. Penalties are called with the same inconsistency as
in your average athletic contest, and they don't diminish the slashes much,
if at all. I've never seen a fight and only heard about one. Even when my
son's nose was badly and messily broken by an opposing player who lacked a
rubber tip to his stick, so he could spear my son through his face mask,
and David's teammates wanted to fight, they didn't. It's just not part of
the culture, I think. Kinda like, why waste our time, let's keep playing.
And these are the often the same boys who play hockey in the winter.

This is a great point. In my short and narrow experience, it seems more
common for women to just get euphoric, energetic, loud, from playing
hockey. We don't stress the competition, but the sheer great fun. We're
still playing with as much intensity as we are able, because it's more fun
that way. So, maybe even when it gets very competitive, it's not a big
part of women's hockey culture? The only woman I've personally seen punch
people grew up playing with boys.
It's interesting to discuss this. Barbara Bartholomew

Obviously you're talking about the polite version of lacrosse played on
fields by college boys and girls. I recall a local field tournament in which
private schoolgirls from the UK visited Victoria...no protective gear and on
the field banter featured the refrain "I say, pass the ball, Emma!".
You haven't encountered box lacrosse as played in B.C. and Ontario!
(Girl's/women's boxla leagues are starting up, too!)
