Men's ice hockey wrapped up the fall campaign with a 3-1 victory over Maryville Saturday night at the Maryville Hockey Center in Chesterfield, Missouri.

After most of the opening period ticked away, Vegard Faret cashed in off a feed from Hayden Ursulak with just 48-seconds remaining.  The Lions held that 1-0 advantage until Max Helgeson scored with the man-advantage at the 13:38 mark of the second on a play set up by Andy Willis and Mitch Allard.  Lindenwood opened up a 3-0 lead early in the third when Kyle Jeffers sounded the horn at 4:59 with help from Aiden Yakimchuk and Caleb Price.  The Saints managed a score late in the period to erase the shutout, but that's as close as they would get.

The Lions outshot Maryville 37-14, and freshman Trent Burnham stopped 13 of the 14 shots he faced to earn the win in goal.

Lindenwood improved to 11-3-0 overall with the victory.  The Lions head to break with a perfect 6-0-0 mark in the Central States Collegiate Hockey League (CSCHL).  They return to the ice for a conference home-and-home series against the University of Illinois January 7-8.  The puck will drop at 7:10 p.m. for the first game that Friday at the Centene Community Ice Center in Maryland Heights, Missouri.  The series finale is set for 7 p.m. that Saturday at the Illinois Ice Arena in Champaign – Urbana, Illinois.
