After a crucial
UMAC victory this past weekend against the University of Northwestern, St. Paul Eagles, the Rams will look to capitalize on their momentum when they take on the Northland College Lumberjills in their first meeting of the year. Last season, the Rams managed to sweep the Lumberjills in the two conference showdowns by final scores of 77-58 and 60-55. Both contests were highlighted by impactful performances fromÂ
Naomi Hagstrom, who combined for 41 total points against the Lumberjills last season.
