The CMU club lacrosse team split a pair of games over the weekend in Minnesota.

CMU beat Minnesota 8-5 Sunday, but fell 13-3 to No. 6 Minnesota-Duluth on Saturday.

CMU club hockey coach Mike Jakubik did not mince his words when describing the team’s season finale.

CMU was defeated 11-1 by Davenport University in what Jakubik called an ugly, disastrous game Friday in Midland.

The American Collegiate Hockey Association Central regional rankings were updated Tuesday, but not in favor of the CMU club hockey team.

The team’s four-game win streak to close out the ranking period was not enough to make the playoffs, as it finished the regular season ranked No. 12, two spots out.

The CMU club lacrosse team has road games Saturday and Sunday against No. 4 Minnesota-Duluth and Minnesota.

Senior defenseman Chuck Vierk said a win against Minnesota-Duluth would be huge for the CMU program. The teams play at 4 p.m. Saturday.

The CMU club hockey team continued its win streak over the weekend with a sweep of Lake Superior State to improve to 4-0 in February.

The team gave up two early goals in the first period Saturday before unloading offensively on a shorthanded LSSU team in a 10-2 victory.

The CMU men’s club hockey team looks to continue its grind toward a playoff spot as it plays Lake Superior State (17-15) at 9 p.m. today and Saturday at the Isabella County Events Arena.

“We just need to play like we did last weekend and we’ll be in good shape,” said Central coach Mike Jakubik.

The CMU club lacrosse team looks to continue its winning ways as it heads into its first road game of the season at noon Saturday against Adrian.

“Adrian is a good team — a Division-III team that is allowed to recruit, which means that they are going to have some good players that are capable of playing into their system,” said senior defenseman Chuck Vierk. “We can’t have as many penalties as we did in the last game because this cuts down on our offensive sets, as well as wearing our defense down.”

Offense was not an issue for the CMU club hockey team as it scored 15 goals in its two-game weekend sweep of Adrian.

CMU beat Adrian 9-5 Saturday and 6-5 Friday in two much-needed wins as playoffs draw nearer.
