Women's Hockey to Hold Annual Fundraiser for the United Way of Tompkins County. It's a 2PM game, maybe I can get a hockey doubleheader?(doubtful) The way the Clarkson women (and men) are starting, it might be a tough year for us.

USCHO 10/7 Poll posted. We're still 4.

I noticed that 2x defending champion Minnesota visited Colgate this past weekend to start the season. One would think they might have rather visited Ithaca for more of a marquee matchup, if it weren't for the lame Ivy rules regarding season start times/game limits. The Lady Gophers are traveling East once more this season when they go to Yale.

CornellBigRed report on the beginning of this season.

Women's Hockey to Hold Annual Fundraiser for the United Way of Tompkins County with the Northeastern game this Sat. Make it a hockey doubleheader.

Pretty strong 6-2 win against Northeastern today. Cornell came out flying and weathered a bit of a lapse late first period/early second period.

I'm intrigued by the Campbell-Woods pairing on the PK and think it could work really well. (Did they do that last year? I can't remember.) Liked what I saw from Bunton and some of the other freshmen a lot.

Also, I forgot how cold Lynah is when it's not packed.

Women shut out NE on Sunday 3-0. Slebodnick ties Mazz as all-time leader in wins.

ECAC Radio features Iles and Saulnier.

Women up on Clarkson 4-2 after two periods. Highlights so far: Clarkson with an "own goal" to open the scoring. Jillian Saulnier has balanced her 2? goals with a 5 min major during which Clarkson scored one. Continuing a pattern that started against Northeastern, we dominated play in the first and got sloppy for a lot of the second, although the penalty kill during the major was outstanding.

Cornell 6-3, I only saw bits and pieces, but we looked better individually and Clarkson better as a team.

I only got to see the last 15 minutes, and we really did survive a great amount of Clarkson pressure and grade-A opportunities. Slobo earned the W (now CU's career Win leader), and we got a couple opportunistic goals near the end to seal it after Clarkson got into penalty trouble. Saulnier got her 100th career point on a great drop pass in transition to set up the 5th goal .

Big win against a team favored to win the league.

Wonder how much of that can be attributed to this being Cornell's third game and Clarkson's eighth. Cornell is working in a lot of new players in new roles, so I think everything we've seen so far is very promising.

5th goal was a thing of beauty... Saulnier enters the zone 1 on 3, shields the puck, then drop passes to Campbell, who snapped off a laser

Agree, I saw that one.

Was at the whole game with the band. Besides a bit of sloppy play late in the second period and early in the third, you really cannot ask for a better game against a team of Clarkson's caliber, especially with the number of players we lost last year. That own goal to start the game was the funniest thing I have ever witnessed though. If that ever happened in a men's game the fans would never let the goalie ever live it down. Seriously those kind of own goals aren't even seen in pee-wees

This is my first look at the new women's box score. Check it out, it's wonderful. Will the men do the same?

Not sure what the question is here but if you mean beat up on Clarkson we can hope. The number 12 ECAC preseason pick Knights are now 5-1-1.

He means will we have great box scores (exhaustive, clean, useful) for the men, too. He's right -- that box score is excellent.

Are you supposed to credit assists on an own goal? I can't find anything that prohibits it in the NCAA scoring rules, but I thought that no assists were to be listed in that case.

Women win 6-4

The format is a little different and it's a black, white, and grey PDF file instead of a web page, but the men's box score from last night seems to me to have pretty close to the same information content which I claim makes it useful.

I wouldn't, and I didn't, claim that the usual box score isn't useful. The difference is that the women's page has beauty and ease of reading. The men's page is strictly utilitarian, the info is there but it doesn't capture your interest to stay and look, like the women's does. The new format looks more like a page that Jobs would design, as opposed to the Gates men's site. And you can't find a Play-by-Play on the men's.

Personally, I prefer this style.

Less is usually more. The women's box score linked above is very clean and manages to display a lot of information without feeling cluttered or moving the eye around too much. This guy would approve.

Box scores that don't include individual penalty information are useless.

Ah, but your purposes also require the winning raffle number...

Will you geezers lay off each other? We've got a hockey game about to begin!

Emily Fulton is ECAC POTW.

USCHO article titled Campbell and Fulton are becoming more recognizable at Cornell.

Fulton is ECAC POTM.

Women are hammering Princeton. 5-0 after 1 period. Not sure of the scoring since we got 3 in the last 2 minutes but Saulnier has at least one and Taylor Woods 2 goals.

Second period Princeton did the hammering...4 unanswered goals to make it 5-4 at the start of the 3rd. Don't ask me to explain how that happened because I am not sure I can.

In case anyone else was wondering how this cliffhanger turned out, the game ended 5-4. The women tied Quinnipiac 1-1 yesterday.

The women pick up some ECAC awards.
