HANOVER, N.H. - Freshman Camille Dumais (Beaconsfield, Que.) scored her first two collegiate goals and classmate Sally Komarek (Minneapolis, Minn.) tallied two assists as the Dartmouth women's hockey team upset seventh-ranked St. Lawrence, 4-2, on Friday night.

The Big Green (1-1-1, 1-1-1 ECAC Hockey) got the eventual game-winner from senior co-captain Sarah Parsons (Dover, Mass.), while junior Amanda Trunzo (Andover, Minn.) scored for the second-straight contest. Parsons also added an assist for a two-point night. Senior Mariel Lacina (London, Ont.) started between the pipes and made 20 saves to earn her first win of the year.

The Saints (4-3-3, 2-2-0 ECAC Hockey) had Kelly Sabatine and Vanessa Emard each scored with Michelle Ng and Alley Bero assisting on the two goals. Brittany Chartier got the start in net and made 28 saves in the crease in the loss.

Both St. Lawrence and Dartmouth played evenly for the first 15 minutes. Then the Saints were able to take a quick 2-0 lead with two shorthanded goals coming 25 seconds apart. Sabatine got a pass from Michelle Ng and broke into the Dartmouth zone, beating Lacina top shelf for the 1-0 lead. Vanessa Emond scored another shorthanded goal with 2:12 remaining in the period to give the Saints a 2-0 lead.

Trunzo fired back, going end-to-end and burying the puck past Chartier to cut the lead to 2-1. Parsons was credited with an assist as she gave a streaking Trunzo the puck in the defensive zone.

Dartmouth evened the score at 2-2, four minutes into the second frame on a nice hook up by the rookies. Komarek slid the puck to classmate Sasha Nanji (Markham, Ont.) and she found an open Dumais across the crease at the far post. Dumais was calm and shoveled the puck to the back of the net.

In the third period, the Big Green took control and outplayed the Saints in the frame. Parsons netted the game-winner with 10:34 remaining in the game on a harmless shot that was deflected by the defense and into the net to give Dartmouth its first lead at 3-2.

Dumais added insurance just over two minutes later with her second of the night on the power play to give the Big Green a huge 4-2 victory over the nationally-ranked Saints.

The Big Green certainly had its chances on the man advantage as Dartmouth went 2-for-10 with the extra skater, while St. Lawrence managed no power play goals in four opportunities. The Big Green outshot the Saints 32-22 in the win.

Dartmouth will be back at it tomorrow at 4 p.m. as another nationally-ranked comes to Thompson as No. 2 Clarkson visits Hanover after defeating Harvard tonight 2-1.
