by | Nov 8, 2026

The Montana Tech Orediggers lit up the scoreboard Friday night, defeating the University of Idaho Vandals 10-3 at the Butte Community Ice Center.

Tye Carriere led the offensive charge with four goals as the Orediggers turned a high-volume game into a decisive win. Montana Tech fired 53 shots on Vandals goalie Colin Crecelius, who made 30 saves. Idaho managed 55 shots of its own, but Orediggers netminder Joe Rolfson stopped 52 to help secure the victory.

The Vandals’ Clayton Lee scored one of Idaho’s three goals. Montana Tech also made the most of its power-play chances, scoring once on four opportunities, while the Vandals went scoreless on nine power plays.

The Orediggers will face Idaho again Saturday, Nov. 7, at the Butte Community Ice Center.
