The Montana State University Bobcats delivered a stunning performance against the University of Wyoming Pokes on February 7, 2026, at Haynes Pavilion. The Bobcats emerged victorious with a final score of 4-1 despite being outshot by the Pokes 55-35.

In a game that saw the Pokes dominate in shots on goal, the Bobcats showcased their defensive prowess. Bobcats’ goalie Reese McConnell had an outstanding night, making a total of 54 saves out of 55 shots. On the other side of the rink, Pokes’ goalie Pudgie Sabinash managed 31 saves out of 35 shots.

The powerplay stats for both teams were less than stellar, with the Pokes going 0/3 and the Bobcats 0/4. Despite the lack of powerplay success, both teams managed to find the back of the net. Pokes’ #2 Zoey Brown and Bobcats’ #26 Nicola Roberts each netted a goal.

The Bobcats will look to carry this momentum into their next game, a home match against the University of Utah on February 20 at the CU Boulder Rec Center Ice Rink. With this victory under their belt, the Bobcats have shown that they are a force to be reckoned with this season.
