Game on in the MIAC

No. 20 Saint Benedict beat No. 9 St. Thomas, 3-1, yesterday to make things very interesting in the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, where four teams now have one conference loss. Oh, by the way, that was St. Thomas’s first regular-season MIAC loss since 2006 and the first time the Blazers beat the Tommies since 2004.
