Abbey Murphy had two goals and three assists and Peyton Hemp scored twice to lead the Gophers women’s hockey team to an 9-1 victory over Bemidji State on Saturday at Ridder Arena.

The victory was the eighth in a row for the No. 3 Gophers (13-2, 9-2 WCHA), who outscored the Beavers 18-3 in the series sweep.

“Great way to cap off the weekend here, getting the sweep,” coach Brad Frost said. “Again, so great to be back home. It was awesome to see our offense clicking.”

Murphy, a junior, had eight points on the weekend (four goals, four assists) to push her career total to 99 points. Murphy leads the nation with 1.27 goals per game — 19 in 15 games.

The Gophers scored five times in the final 11 minutes of the first period and then added three goals in the second period to extend their lead to 8-0.

Six other Gophers had at least two points as they outshot the Beavers 44-25.

The Gophers play at St. Cloud State on Tuesday before hosting two-game weekend series against Wisconsin at Ridder Arena. After that series, the Gophers are idle until Jan. 4.

“We know we’ve got a big week coming up, and we’re looking forward to heading up to St. Cloud on Tuesday,” Frost said.
