ANCHORAGE, ALASKA – Matt Kinash and Matt Allen each scored two goals to lead the University of Alaska Anchorage to a 7-2 win over Vancouver Island Friday.

"We see we have some things to focus on this week in practice to be ready for next Saturday. We really appreciate Vancouver Island for making the trip."

The Seawolves jumped out to an early lead with a pair of goals in the first four minutes of play.
