Lehigh MD1 put on an absolute clinic on home ice Friday night at Steel Ice Center, dominating Temple University in an 8–1 rout. The Mountain Hawks set the tone early in the first period, piling on three goals from Morgan Waddell, Aiden Mumm, and Dominic Wojtecki. Lehigh blew the game wide open in the final two frames, adding five more tallies highlighted by power-play strikes from Jesse Heinberg and Ryan Carr. Between the pipes, goaltender Demetri Condolios anchored the defense with a stellar performance, stopping 26 of 27 shots to secure the decisive victory.

The momentum carried directly into Saturday afternoon's rematch at the Northeast Skate Zone, where Lehigh completed the weekend sweep with a commanding 7–0 shutout. The Mountain Hawks delivered a relentless first-period assault, netting five unanswered goals from Max Myagkov (2), Devin Gosciak, Max Toomey, and Aiden Mumm to put the game far out of reach before the first intermission. Zach Knopf scored, while Jesse Heinberg added a power-play marker in the second period to round out the scoring. Goaltenders Demetri Condolios, Von Larson, and Curran Wilga combined forces in net to turn away all 13 Temple shots, sealing the first shutout of the season for Lehigh.
