Game 31: UMD at Minnesota State

MANKATO, Minn. -- Greetings from Mankato. Duluth News Tribune reporter Kevin Pates -- seeing his fifth road game this season -- handled our driving duties, and did a splendid job until we got into the parking ramp near the Verizon Wireless Center, which is connected to our hotel.

And, as usual, even that worked out in the end.

(Long story short: We ended up going through the entrance gate to the ramp twice in about five minutes. I don't get too much into how that ended up happening.)

In lineup news, Kenny Reiter (virus) is dressing for the game, but will not start. Aaron Crandall gets his third start and fourth appearance of the season. He was very sharp in relief of Reiter Jan. 28 against Michigan Tech in his last outing.

Lines?
