DeKALB — Hockey held a pair of leads but couldn't secure the victory, losing to the Maryville University Saints Friday night.

NIU had some opportunities, but could never distance itself from Maryville after gaining the lead twice. This allowed the Saints to keep pace with the Huskies and eventually pull away in the third period, handing NIU an 8-5 loss.
