One day after jumping into the number two slot in the USCHO.com poll, the University of Minnesota Duluth women's hockey team secured the second spot in the USA Today/ USA Hockey Magazine most recent poll released Tuesday.  

The Bulldogs received 162 votes en route to their highest USA Hockey ranking since Oct. 4, 2010.  UMD has now been nationally ranked for 14 consecutive weeks this season.

That new ranking will be put to the test this weekend when the Bulldogs travel to Bemidji State University this weekend.  Game-times are set for 3:07 p.m. both Friday and Saturday.
