NEW HAVEN, Conn. - Freshman Reagan Fischer (Irma, Alta.) netted a pair of scores, while classmate Kelly Foley (Boston, Mass.) collected three points as the eighth-ranked Dartmouth women's hockey team defeated Yale, 5-2, on Friday night at Ingalls rink.
For Dartmouth (10-5-2, 8-3-2 ECAC Hockey, 4-2-0 Ivy), senior co-captain Shannon Bowman (Leamington, Ont.) and junior Sarah Parsons (Dover, Mass.) each added scores with sophomore Amanda Trunzo (Andover, Minn.) dishing out a couple of assists. Senior netminder Carli Clemis (Taber, Alta.) made 28 saves between the pipes to earn her eighth win of the season.
For Yale (7-8-0, 3-5-0 ECAC Hockey, 1-2-0 Ivy), Maggie Westfal and Bray Ketchum led the way with a goal apiece with Ketchum also adding an assist for a two-point night. Goaltender Jackee Snikeris made 39 stops in net, but took the loss.
Fischer got the Big Green on the board first, 4:34 into the first period with her fourth of the season and first of the night. Freshman Moira Scanlon (Chicago, Ill.) and Foley were credited with the assists and for the first time this season all freshmen skaters factored in a goal to give Dartmouth a early 1-0 lead.
The Big Green increased its lead to 2-0 on a goal from Parsons, coming just over three minutes after the goal from Fischer. It was also Parsons' fourth of the season with senior Maggie Kennedy (West Hartford, Conn.) and Trunzo posting the assists.
Yale broke the ice with seven minutes remaining in the opening frame on Westfal's second of the year with Ketchum and Helen Resor collecting the assists.
In the second period, the Bulldogs evened the score at 2-2 after Dartmouth was called for interference at the 13:28 mark. Yale took advantage as Ketchum tallied the power play goal, which was her seventh score of the year. Aleca Hughes and Danielle Kozlowski were given the assists.
Foley continued her impressive night with the eventual game-winner midway through the period. She posted her second of the season with junior Sarah Toupal (White Bear Lake, Minn.) adding the assist to give the Big Green a 3-2 lead into the final period.
Dartmouth added to its lead twice in the third period on goals from Fischer and Bowman. The goals were scored late in the period and just over a minute apart. For Fischer, it was her second career two-point game, but first two-goal game. She tallied two points in the win over Vermont on Dec. 30.
The Big Green gave up one power play goal, but did a great job staying out of the box throughout the game. Dartmouth landed in the penalty box only four times to Yale's six. The Big Green had opportunities on the man advantage, but couldn't capitalize. The two teams combined for 74 shots on goal with Dartmouth holding a 44-30 advantage.
The Big Green will be back in action tomorrow afternoon as Dartmouth travels to Brown for a 4 p.m. face-off against the Bears.
