The Soaring Eagles were able to rebound from their 0-1-1 showing at the East-West Classic by defeating ECAC West foe, Utica College, twice last weekend. EC took the first game, the women’s home opener 4-1, and then followed that performance up with a 3-1 road victory the next day. It is the 13th year in a row that the women’s ice hockey team opened their ECAC West schedule without a loss, posting a 24-0-1 record in ECAC West opening weekend games since 2001-02.

Erin Weston ’15 had the most productive weekend of her career against Utica last weekend, tallying four points on three goals and one assist.
