LEADING THE WAY: Huntsville native Josh Kestner scored his team-leading 15th goal of the season in the victory on Saturday, giving the senior a team-high 19 points from an additional four assists. Kestner – who ranks tied for eighth in the program's modern Division I history with 35 career goals – enters the weekend rated second in the WCHA in goal (15) and goals per game (.62), while leading the conference in the league slate with 13 goals and .72 goals per contest.
 
SOPHOMORE SURGE: Sophomore Austin Beaulieu led the Chargers offense during the weekend set in Fairbanks with three points on two goals and an assist, potting a goal in each game including the game-winner on Saturday.

BETWEEN THE PIPES: Jordan Uhelski made his 19th start in goal on Saturday and came away with the win after allowing just one goal and making 35 saves during the contest. Following his impressive performance, Uhelski now ranks second in the WCHA with a .911 save percentage and has faced the second-most shots in the conference.
 
ON THE BLOCK: UAH boasts a league-high 337 blocks so far in the 2017-18 campaign, as a total of seven players have posted 20 blocks or more. The Chargers are led by Cody Champagne with a team-high 43 blocks, which tied for fourth in the WCHA.
