PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- The Cornell women's hockey team claimed its
first outright Ivy League title since 1996 with a 4-0 victory over
Brown on Friday night in Providence, R.I. Karlee Overguard had a
pair of goals while Catherine White and Laura Fortino both added a
pair of assists in the victory.
Hayley Hughes and Chelsea Karpenko both added a goal in the win for
the Big Red, which moved to within one point of first place in the
ECAC Hockey race. Amanda Mazzotta stopped all 15 shots she faced
for her third straight shutout and ninth of the season as Cornell
improved to 12-8-6 on the year and 11-2-6 in league play.
Brown goaltender Katie Jamieson stopped 36 shots in taking the loss
for the Bears, who fell to 2-19-4 on the year and 0-16-3 in league
play.
Cornell got on the board at the 14:16 mark of the game with
Overguard's first goal of the night, assisted by White and Jue. The
Big Red would take that lead into the second period when Hughes
scored 4:37 into the period to make the score 2-0, with Amber
Overguard and Fortino both tallying assists.
Karpenko added a goal a minute later, with Amanda Young adding an
assist, as the Big Red sealed the game away, making the score 3-0.
Karlee Overguard scored her second to make the final margin 4-0
with her goal at the 14:42 mark of the third period.
Cornell closes out the final road contest of the regular season on
Saturday when it takes on Yale in a 4 p.m. game in New Haven, Conn.
A win by the Big Red would seal its first-ever top-four finish in
ECAC Hockey, while Cornell tries to keep pace with Clarkson in the
race for the regular-season crown.
