St. Norbert wins NCAA hockey title

St. Norbert College capped an improbable season Sunday by winning its first NCAA Division III men's hockey championship.

Scott Pulak and Marc Belanger scored second-period goals and Kyle Jones thwarted five power-play chances and stopped all 32 shots he faced to lead the Green Knights to a 2-0 victory over Plattsburgh State in Lake Placid, N.Y.

St. Norbert (27-1-4), making its third appearance in the title game, finished the season with a 29-game unbeaten streak (25-0-4).

Jones recorded his 10th shutout of the season and his 25th overall, both NCAA Division III records.

Plattsburgh state finished 25-5-0.
