St. Norbert falls to 3rd in D-3 College hockey rankings

January 29, 2018 By Bill Scott

The St. Norbert College Green Knights after being perched at the top of the Division 3 College polls all-season, but a recent bump in the road has seen them fall from first to third in the latest polls (USCHO.com & D3hockey.com).

The Green Knights dropped three straight games over the last two weekends before ending the skid with a 5-1 victory over Trine on Saturday.

As a result, the Knights fell from first to third.  Adrian College, who handed St. Norbert one of its losses, moved into the top spot and UW-Stevens Point is now ranked second.

Badgers stay put at 18

The Wisconsin Badgers split with Notre Dame two weeks ago, then took 5 of 6 points in their two game series with Penn State this past weekend, yet for the third week in a row, there’s been no movement.  The Badgers, who are 19th in the PairWise rankings, are 18th in the USCHO.com poll.

Notre Dame, which also split a pair of games with Minnesota last weekend, dropped out of the top spot to number-2, with Cornell moving into the top spot.  Clarkson is third, Denver fourth and Ohio State is in at number-5.

The Badgers hit the road for a two-game series at Michigan this weekend, before returning home to face rival Minnesota in two weeks.

St. Norbert College women’s basketball team penalized for alcohol-related incident

December 7, 2017 By Bill Scott

The St. Norbert College women’s basketball team is unable to compete in its next 10 women’s basketball games due to a violation of institutional policy stemming from an on-campus alcohol-related incident involving a number of players.

The decision, as decided by the St. Norbert college student judicial review process, suspends the involved students for 10 games.  The suspension is effective immediately and will run through Jan. 24.

“The health and wellness of our student body is of paramount importance,” Rev. Jay Fostner, O. Praem., St. Norbert College Vice President of Mission and Student Affairs said.  “We have  high expectations of our student-athletes and our students in general.”

Additionally, St. Norbert College is ineligible for the Midwest Conference Women’s Basketball Tournament and regular-season championship because it is unable to play a full conference schedule as result of a situation within an institution’s control.

St. Norbert College will continue with practice and other team functions prior to resuming its season on Jan. 27 at Cornell (Iowa) College.
