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.

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.

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
