The Raiders have an 11-4-1 record overall and an ECAC leading 6-2 record.

The Raiders will play a home-and-away series against the St. Lawrence University Saints this weekend.

Shaunavon’s Taylor Lind is in the midst of a breakout season with the St. Cloud State Huskies. The 5’7’’ Sophomore forward is third on the team with four goals and tied for the team lead with five assists in 15 games this season.
