The St. Cloud State men's hockey team has advanced to the regional final of the NCAA tournament with a 6-2 first round win today over Boston University in Albany, New York.

After a scoreless first period, Boston University tallied the first goal of the game in the second period. Still in the second, the Huskies would take a 2-1 lead on goals from Micah Miller and Nick Perbix -- before Boston University would add a second goal to tie things up. With four minutes left in the second, St. Cloud State regained the lead on a goal by Easton Brodzinski, and that's there the period would end.
