FALCON NOTES

• The Falcons are ranked No. 1 in both of the USCHO and DIII Hockey News preseason polls for the second consecutive week.
• UWRF is coming off a 5-2 win over the College of St. Scholastica during its first road game of the season on Saturday in Duluth, Minn., led by a two-goal effort from Megan Goodreau.
  • Additionally, Ellie Brice, Katherine Bell, and Alexa Niccum (her first as a Falcon) scored goals. Jordan O'Kane made her third start in a row in net and made 12 saves in the win.
• During UWRF's season-opening win over CSB, UWRF extended its winning streak to 32 games dating back to last season, breaking a NCAA Division III record for overall winning streak, besting Middlebury's record of 31 set from 2021-22. 
• UWRF's DIII-record winning streak ended last Friday with a 4-4 draw against Augsburg University, although the unbeaten streak remains alive, dating back to the 2022-23 season.
