Boasting a 6-1-1 overall record, a lofty ranking of third in the
nation, and coming off an impressive sweep of two Top-10 teams,
Clarkson University Women’s Hockey rolls into ECAC Hockey
play Tuesday night. The Golden Knights, guided by second-year
co-head coaches Shannon and Matt Desrosiers, begin their sixth
campaign of conference action by hosting archrival St. Lawrence
University in a 7:00 p.m. game at Cheel Arena. The Green and Gold
are unbeaten on their home ice this season with a 5-0-1 mark and
have outscored their opponents 26-8 in Potsdam.
Clarkson rose to the challenge this past weekend when it
overwhelmed two of the top teams in the nation to open up a
five-game home stand in impressive fashion. On Friday, the Knights
jumped out to a 3-0 first-period lead against third-ranked
University of New Hampshire en route to a 6-2 victory over the
Hockey East powerhouse. It was even better for the Green and Gold
on Saturday as they cruised to a 7-2 triumph over ninth-ranked
Boston University.
Named ECAC Hockey Player of the Week, senior captain Britney
Selina (Thornhill, ONT) was one of many standouts for the Knights
in the weekend sweep. She scored the game-winner against UNH with a
shorthanded, unassisted tally and also added a power-play goal in
the victory over the highly-rated Wildcats. Selina,
Clarkson’s all-time leading scorer, came back on Saturday
with four assists in the rout of Boston University. Selina, who has
123 career points (44-79), finished with six points (2-4) against
two of the best teams in the nation.
