In a riveting showdown at the Haynes Pavilion on February 7, 2026, the Montana State University Bobcats emerged victorious against the University of Wyoming Pokes with a final score of 4-1.

Despite the Pokes outshooting the Bobcats with 55 shots compared to their 35, the Bobcats defense proved impenetrable. Bobcats’ goalie, Reese McConnell, put on a stellar performance, saving 54 out of 55 shots, while Pokes’ goalie Pudgie Sabinash managed to save 31 out of 35.

The powerplay opportunities for both teams were unfruitful, with the Pokes going 0/3 and the Bobcats 0/4. This didn’t dampen the spirits of the Bobcats, who displayed remarkable skill and determination throughout the match.

The lone goal for the Pokes was netted by #2 Zoey Brown. On the other hand, the Bobcats saw a fantastic goal from #26 Nicola Roberts, contributing to their triumphant win.
