HAMILTON, N.Y. -- Sporting pink jerseys for Coaches vs. Cancer, the Colgate University women's hockey team recorded a 5-2 win over No. 6/7 St. Lawrence University at Starr Rink.  

The Raiders were led by freshman Jacquie Colborne's (Calgary, Alta.) two-goal performance and junior Sam Hunt's (Calgary, Alta.) three-point effort. Junior Kiira Dosdall (Fairfield, Conn.) also contributed with two assists.  

The positive energy of supporting the American Cancer Society translated to the Raider locker room as they scored four goals in the opening period, to take a 4-1 lead. St. Lawrence added one in the second but Colgate put the game away with a tally in the final frame.  

Sophomore Ali Edell (Mountain Lakes, N.J.) sparked the offense with an unassisted marker at 7:14 of the first period. Edell skated up the left side and sent a shot into the upper left 90 to give the Raiders the lead they wouldn't relinquish.  

Colborne scored a 5-on-3 power-play goal at 10:06 to extend the lead. Sophomore Marissa Dombovy (Webster, N.Y.) has the puck down in the left side and fed Dosdall at the top of the face-off circle. Dosdall sent the puck across the ice to Hunt who rifled a shot towards the net where Colborne redirected for the goal.  

St. Lawrence cut the lead back to one when Carson Duggan swept the puck across the slot to Sabrina Harbec who sent it into the bottom left corner at 13:05.  

Just over four minutes later, Colborne scored the eventual game winner. Hunt found Colborne open in the neutral zone on the right side and sent the puck down the ice. A Saint caught up to her and tried to not allow her a shot off, but she nailed the puck as she was taken down and it flew past goaltender Meaghan Guckian to light the lamp.  

Sophomore Beth Rotenberg (Toronto, Ont.) knocked in a Hannah Milan (Great Barrington, Mass.) pass just 63 seconds later to give Colgate a 4-1 lead.  

St. Lawrence's Kerri Wallace scored the only goal of the second period after a scrum in front of the net. Tara Akstull had the puck on the left side and sent the puck across the paint to Wallace who went five-hole on netminder Lisa Plenderleith (Ajax, Ont.).  

Hunt sealed the Raider victory with another 5-on-3 goal just 31 seconds into the third period. Junior Elin Brown (Calgary, Alta.) fed the puck to Dosdall at the point, and Dosdall found Hunt open for the shot.  

Colgate went 2-for-6 on the power-play and held fourth-ranked Saint power-play scoreless, going 5-for-5 on the penalty kill.  

Plenderleith, the ECAC Hockey Rookie of the Week, made 26 saves, while the ECAC Goaltender of the Week made 12 saves in the loss.  

Colgate will face Clarkson on Saturday, Feb. 9 at 4 p.m. The Golden Knights posted a 5-3 win over Cornell in Ithaca, N.Y., tonight. The game will be televised live on Time Warner Sports, local channel 26.
