Top Story

No. 9/8 Robert Morris returns home this weekend to take on Syracuse as a part of CHA’s “Skate

for the Cure” promotion. The Colonials are coming off their second-straight split after they defeated Lindenwood 6-1 last Friday, then were upset by the Lions 4-2 in the rubber match. With six games remaining, RMU is now in a tie for first in the CHA standings with Mercyhurst.

Series vs. Syracuse

The all-time series between Robert Morris and Syracuse has been practically even, with the

Colonials holding the slightest of edges thanks in part to their 2-1 victory over the Orange on Nov. 23. RMU went 1-0-1 in a November series at Syracuse, stopping a three-game losing streak to the Orange dating back to last season.

Scouting Syracuse

Despite sitting fourth in the CHA, Syracuse comes into this match-up with an overall record

of 15-11-2 and a PairWise standing of 13th. The Orange hold wins over No. 7 Boston College and at Northeastern, and have also tied Mercyhurst in Erie. Sophomores Melissa Piacentini (13-1124) and Nicole Renault (4-17-21) pace Syracuse offensively, along with the reigning CHA Rookie of the Month Jessica Sibley (9-10-19). Seniors Jenesica Drinkwater and Kallie Billadeau have split time in net for the Orange, with not much of a drop-off between the two upperclassmen. Drinkwater sports a record of 11-4-0 with a GAA of 1.93 and .926 save percentage, while Billadeau has a save percentage of .933 and a 2.12 GAA, but has been unluckier in the win column with a record of 4-7-2.
