Tigers Complete Sweep Over Miami

Noah Laba scored twice for the second straight game and Kaidan Mbereko had 31 saves as Colorado College completed a weekend sweep against Miami with a 4-1 victory Saturday night in Oxford, Ohio.
 
The Tigers extended their unbeaten streak to 11 (9-0-2) against the Redhawks, including a 7-0-1 mark in the last eight contests in Oxford. They also improved to 7-3 overall and 2-2 in the NCHC, while Miami fell to 4-5-1 and 0-4.
 
Laba opened the scoring with his fifth goal of the season and third of the weekend. He rushed down the right side with the puck, cut in front of the net and still had the puck after circling to the top of the left circle, then put a shot past Miami goalie Logan Neaton, who was still on his stomach after the initial rush. Gleb Veremyev collected an assist on the play, extending his career-best point streak to six games.
 
CC doubled its lead just two minutes into second period as Ryan Beck scored his first goal of the season. Bret Link sent a beautiful pass from the right circle to a streaking Beck at the bottom of the left circle and Beck hit the open net.
 
The RedHawks cut the lead in half when Max Dukovac scored from below the left circle at the 5:08 mark of the second period.
 
Laba scored his second of the game and second shorthanded goal of the weekend at the 17:31 mark of the middle frame with a breakaway to make it 3-1. He is the first Colorado College player to score two goals in consecutive games since Chris Wilkie vs. Princeton in 2019 and the first with a shorthanded goal in back-to-back contests since Chad Rau vs. Wisconsin on Nov. 16-17, 2007.
 
Drew Montgomery put the game away with an empty-net goal with 13 seconds left in the final period.
 
Mbereko was solid once again, allowing just one goal on 31 shots, including 12 in each of the first and third periods. Veremyev led the Tigers with five shots, followed by Laba and Connor Mayer with four apiece. Both teams were 0-for-5 on the power play.
 
The Tigers return to action next weekend, Nov. 17-18, against 12th-ranked Western Michigan at Ed Robson Arena.
