DEFENSEMAN OF THE WEEK

Ethan Prow, St. Cloud State

Junior Defenseman

Sauk Rapids, Minn.

Prow posted three points from the blue line to help St. Cloud State earn a weekend split with No. 1 Minnesota. In Friday’s 4-1 win, which handed the Gophers their first loss of the season, Prow dished out two assists and had a +1 rating. He set up the game-winning goal in the closing seconds of the first period and also picked up an assist on a SCSU power play goal in the second period. In Saturday’s 4-3 overtime loss, Prow scored his first goal of the year on the power play midway through the second period, which put SCSU up, 2-1. He blocked a shot in each game for two in the series and helped SCSU’s penalty kill go 5-for-6 on the weekend.
