ELMIRA COLLEGE WOMEN’S ICE HOCKEY GAME NOTES

7 ECAC West Championships

11 NCAA Tournament Appearances

THIS WEEKEND’S OPPONENT

3 NCAA National Championships

Last Time Out

Elmira earned a 4-0 win in its most recent contest against SUNY Cortland, which completed the weekend sweep of the Red Dragons. The Soaring Eagles controlled the tempo of the game right from the jump, as EC outshot Cortland, 17-to-1 in the first period. Elmira would go on to outshoot Cortland 37-to-12 in the contest, en route to its second conference win of the year.

Swedish Scoring

In EC’s four-goal win over the Red Dragons, Elmira’s Swedish nationals, Olivia Nyström ’16, Johanna Eidensten ’17, and Anna Tude ’17, all played major roles.

The trio had a hand in each of Elmira’s four goals and combined for six of EC’s 10 points. All three players finished with two points apiece.

Rookie Honors for Evangelous Utica PIONEERS (5-0-1, 3-0-1 ECACW) Saturday, November 21st, 2015 Murray Athletic Center -- Pine Valley, NY -- 3:00 p.m.

Sunday, November 22nd, 2015 Utica Memorial Auditorium -- Utica, NY -- 3:00 p.m.

Maddie Evangelous ’19 pieced together two very strong performances in Elmira’s two victories over SUNY Cortland. The rookie winger from Hudson, MA, scored a pair of power-play goals and assisted on one other score against the Red Dragons. For her efforts, Evangelous was named the ECAC West Rookie of the Week.

Hat Trick Hero

Meghan Fonfara ’18 exploded for three goals in the second period of Elmira’s 5-1 win over SUNY Cortland. Fonfara’s three-goal effort was the first of her collegiate career and marked the first time an EC skater has tallied a hat trick in one period since the 2010-11 season.

National Honors for EC

Kristin Chivers ’19 and Fonfara were honored earlier this week by being named to the D3hockey.com National Team of the Week. Chivers and Fonfara, who 2015-16 SCHEDULE (3-1-0, 2-0-0 ECAC WEST) were both Second Team honorees, had exceptional performances in the previDay Date Opponent Time-Result ous week’s games. Chivers assisted on a pair of Elmira goals in EC’s 5-1 win over the Red Dragons on Friday night. In that same game, Fonfara registered her first OCT. 31 #6 Adrian L, 1-4 career hat trick, scoring all three goals in the second period. The pair become NOV. 1 #4 Norwich W, 7-2 Elmira’s first representatives on the D3hockey.com National Team of the Week in

14 SUNY Cortland* W, 4-0

21 Utica* 3:00 p.m.

PK Unit Stands Strong

22 Utica* 3:00 p.m.

One area Elmira has excelled at this season has been on the penalty kill. The

27 Middlebury 4:00 p.m.

Soaring Eagles are a perfect 21-for-21 on PK chances, making Elmira one of just

28 Gustavus Adolphus 5:00 p.m. three teams in the country with a 1.000 percent success rate. EC will face a DEC. 5 SUNY Potsdam* 7:00 p.m. tough test in Utica this weekend, as the Pioneers own the nation’s best power 6 SUNY Potsdam* 2:00 p.m. play percentage.

JAN. 2 Williams 3:00 p.m.

9 Norwich 3:00 p.m.

Good Call Coach

12 Amherst 7:00 p.m.

Comparing rosters from a season ago and looking at returning players, one will

16 Neumann* 3:00 p.m. notice that Kyra McDonald ’18 has made the switch from a forward to defense 17 Neumann* 3:00 p.m. man this season. The move by Coach Jackson has already paid dividends, as

23 Chatham* 5:00 p.m.

McDonald has three points on the young season, all coming on assists, as she

24 Chatham* 3:00 p.m. ranks second on the team in defenseman scoring. Last year, McDonald produced

30 Plattsburgh State* 3:00 p.m. six points in 18 games as a forward.

31 Plattsburgh State* 3:00 p.m.

FEB. 5 Buffalo State* 4:00 p.m.

Scouting the Pioneers

6 Buffalo State* 3:00 p.m.

With a 5-0-1 record, Utica College is off to its second-best start in program

13 William Smith* 3:00 p.m. history. The Pioneers opened the year with five straight wins before skating

14 William Smith* 4:00 p.m. to a 2-2 overtime tie with Oswego State in their most recent contest. One of

19 Oswego State* 7:00 p.m. the main reasons Utica has been so successful thus far has been their play on

20 Oswego State* 3:00 p.m. special teams, specifically on the power play. Utica boasts the nation’s most

27 ECAC West Quarterfinals TBA lethal power-play unit, scoring on 42.1 percent of its chances. The Pioneers have MAR. 5 ECAC West Semifinals TBA been just as good on the penalty kill, denying opponents on 17-of-18 power-play

6 ECAC West Championship TBA opportunities. Individually, Utica has relied on the efforts of Morgan Reed, who

12 NCAA Quarterfinals TBA leads the country in points per game (2.83) and shares the national-lead in goals per game (1.50). Also keep an eye on Gabrielle Schnepp and Lauren Patterson, Home contests are bolded who are first and second in the nation in assists per contest, respectively. *Denotes ECAC West contest
