POTSDAM, N.Y. -- The 10th-ranked Dartmouth women's hockey team
tied Clarkson on
Friday, 2-2. It marked the first tie for the Big Green since Jan.
3, 2010 when

and 0-0-1 in
the ECAC. Clarkson is now 4-1-4 overall and 0-0-1 in the

For the second consecutive game, Dartmouth jumped out to a two-goal
lead. After
a scoreless first period, junior Jenna Hobeika (Alpine, N.H.)
redirected a shot
from the point by junior Margaux Sharp (Carleton Place, Ontario) at
10:39 for
the game's first goal. It marked Hobeika's first goal of the season
and Sharp's
second assist.
With .6 of a second remaining in the stanza, junior Sasha Nanji
(Markham, Ontario)
connected off assists from senior Reagan Fischer (Irma, Alberta)
and junior Camille
Dumais (Beaconsfield, Quebec) to give Dartmouth a two-goal lead
through 40 minutes.
It marked Nanji's first goal of the year and the second assist for
Fischer and

In the third period, Clarkson put pressure on the Big Green from
the opening faceoff.
Just 76 seconds into the third, freshman Christine Lambert found
the puck in front
during a scramble and poked in her third goal of the season.
With regulation time winding down, Clarkson pulled goaltender Erica
Howe for the
extra skater, and the moved paid off with the tying goal. With 62
seconds remaining
in regulation, junior Danielle Skirrow took a pass out of the
corner by sophomore
Jamie Lee Rattray and slipped in her fourth goal of the season to
make it a 2-2
