Team Lined Up

MENOMONIE (November 20, 2009) – UW-Stout will play host to UW-Stevens Point in a weekend series, hosting the Pointers, Friday, Nov. 20 at 7:30 p.m. and again Saturday, Nov. 21 at 4 p.m.

UW-SP’s leading points man is Travis Erstad, a Stevens Point native and 4th round NHL draft pick of the St. Louis Blues.

The games will be available in a Live Video Stream by Blue Devil Video with Matt Kaskavitch on the call, along with Dan Walenski and Matt Morin. Live audio streams are also available by Stevens Point radio stations both days.

The Blue Devils (2-2-2, 0-2-2 NCHA, 0-0-0 WIAC) have won both games last year, 4-3, 6-3, and Stout has an 8-1-1 record over the Pointers (2-5-0, 0-4-0, 0-0-0) over the last 10 games. The games will be conference games for both the NCHA and the WIAC standings.

Stout will travel to Vermont to participate in the PrimeLink Shootout in Northfield, Vermont, next weekend. Stout will take on host Norwich University, Friday, Nov. 27, then will meet either Middlebury College or SUNY-Plattsburgh, Saturday, Nov. 28.

UW-Stout’s student section, better known as the Devils’ Advocates issued a ‘call-out’ to UW-SP’s student fans last week via an online video.  UW-Stevens Point’s students have not responded officially, but they were invited to come to the Dunn Co. this weekend to battle for student section supremacy.

“Get your popcorn ready,” said Brian Stutz, a UW-Stout senior and DA leader. “because the Dunn Co. is gonna be cooking” he added.
