Last week, the Maryville University M1 hockey team started MCH Conference play with an 8-4 win over rival McKendree University. Goals were scored by Lucas Adams (2), Timon Prexler, Anthony Stavrou (2), Garrett Hunter, Jake Hanebrink, and Jake Chartier. Johnny Massara recorded the win with 20 saves. 
 
On Wednesday night, the Saints competed in an exhibition game against Lindenwood's D2 team in an early season friendly. The game was cut short with roughly 6 minutes on the clock over an abundance of caution regarding an irritant in the facility. Goals were scored by Stavrou, Will Smith, Adams, Trevor Henson, and Damian Caringi. 19 saves were made by Dominic Boily in net as he recorded his second win of the season. 
 
With another off weekend, the Saints are back in action next Thursday, Oct. 7, as they host the Antelopes from Grand Canyon University. Puck drop is 7:15 p.m. at the Maryville University Hockey Center.
