SYRACUSE, NY -- Despite goals from freshman
Rhianna Kurio and junior Marissa Gentile the Union College women's
ice hockey team fell 3-2 on Saturday afternoon at upstate foe
Syracuse. With the setback the Dutchwomen go to 2-11-1, while the
Orange improves to 8-6-1.
Kurio broke the scoreless tie at 6:08 of the first period on a
two-man advantage, power-play goal setup by freshman Lauren
Cromartie and senior Jackie Koetteritz. The tally, which marked the
fifth time this season Union has struck first, was Kurio's second
of the season, giving Union three power-play goals on the year.
The assists were the first for both Cromartie and Koetteritz.
Cromartie now has two points, while Koetteritz has five.
Union's lead didn't last long as Syracuse's Megan Skelly potted her
fifth of the season. The goal, which came at 8:58 of the first was
setup by Julie Rising and Stefanie Marty.
Rising gave the Orange a 2-1 lead only 3:04 into the second period
while on the power-play, but Union responded evening things up at
6:25 with Gentile scoring her first goal of the season and seventh
of her career. Classmate Callee Heywood earned the assist.
It appeared that the game would even through two periods, but
Syracuse's Erin Burns made it 3-2 with just one second remaining on
the clock with the Orange on the power-play. The goal proved to be
the game-winner.
Sophomore Kate Gallagher made her fifth appearance between the
pipes for Union, turning away 25 shots. At the other end, Lucy
Schoedel had 20 stops.
The Dutchwomen turn their attention to crosstown rival RPI for a
home-and-home weekend series, beginning on Friday, Dec. 5 at 2 p.m.
at Messa Rink. The two teams will then do battle on Saturday, Dec.
6 at 2 p.m. at Houston Field House.
