On Saturday afternoon at the Wonderland of Ice in Bridgeport, Conn, Sacred Heart pulled off a 7-2 victory over Trinity capturing their fifth victory of the season.
Sophomore Gina Arnone of Bridgewater N.J. recorded a hat trick and added two assists. Senior goalkeeper Stephanie Boulay of Anchorage, Alaska also had a big game, stopping 28 total shots.
The Pioneers were quick to get on the board. At the 5:21 mark of the first period, Sacred Heart scored on their first power play opportunity. Allie Gillman of Montreal, fired a shot but Bantam goalkeeper Isabel Iwachiw made the stop. However senior Michelle Panella of Malboro, N.J. rebounded the shot to score the first goal of the game.
Sacred Heart added to their lead when Arnone took a pass from junior defenseman Devon Gasin of Augusta, Maine. The pass fired along the boards allowed Arnone to breakaway and scored with a little over four minutes left in the period.
"Some clear cut passes between Dziama, Arnone and Rideout helped score some powerful goals," said Boulay.
By the 3:43 mark of the second period the powerful trio had established a 4-0 lead over Trinity.
The Bantams finally got on the board midway through the period with two quick shots. Britney McKenna slammed a shot right past Boulay off of an assist from Michelle Chee. Soon after, Chee once again came back to score Trinity's second goal of the game.
The Pioneers however would respond. Freshman Sandy Parlato of Needham, Mass. blasted a shot which was rebounded by Arnone to notch her second goal of the game and the Pioneers' second power play goal.
Arnone completed her hat trick off of a pass from Dziama to crush Trinity's hopes of victory. Junior Sarah Hichman of Amherst Mass. finished off the game with a feed from Kristina Feltz of Edison N.J. just 14 seconds after the previous goal was scored.
The Pioneers out shot Trinity 40-30 and finished 2-4 on the power play. The penalty kill unit shut out the Bantams 0-4.
"We really want to make sure we are decisively beating the teams that we are better than as well as giving some of the bigger [division 1] teams some very good games," said senior captain Boulay.
The Pioneers will return to the Wonderland of Ice on Tuesday night when they host Connecticut College. The puck drops at 7:00 p.m.
