EC already has six players with double-digit points after finishing the 2012-13 season with 15 players reaching that plateau.
Top-Five Offense

Fifth in the Nation
Ashley Ryan ’15 continues to rank as one of the best scorers in NCAA Division III Ice Hockey as her 1.83 points per game places her fifth in the country.
