St. Thomas goalie Lauren Bradel (SO-Bemidji) Monday was named MIAC Player of the Week in women's hockey.
Bradel stopped 41 of 42 shots to lead the Tommies to a 4-1, 5-0 weekend sweep of St. Mary's that secured UST's eighth consecutive MIAC playoff trip. She now has six shutouts on the season.
Bradel and her teammates killed off all 12 power-play tries on the weekend, and Bradel has a streak of 52 consecutive power-play kills over her last 12 games.
Bradel is now 14-4 on the season and ranks in the top eight nationally in both save percentage (.950) and GAA (1.17).
St. Thomas can secure a home playoff game and the No. 2 playoff seed with one win vs. St. Olaf or one Cobber loss this weekend to Gustavus.
