When glancing at a scoresheet from a Quinnipiac women’s
ice hockey game there is usually one name that shows up more than
any other on the roster. That name is Elyse Cole, who – after
scoring twice against Syracuse University on Oct. 17 – has
lit the lamp 36 times during her career. The next tally will make
her Quinnipiac’s all-time leading goal scorer.
“I didn’t really know about the record before this
weekend,” the Belleville, Ontario native said. “One of
my teammates had to tell me about it after reading it
online.”
It was Cole’s second goal of the game in a 3-1 victory over
the Orange that tied the mark previously set by Vicky Graham
’08 and Gillian Gallagher ’05. After splitting the
series with Syracuse, the Bobcats (1-5) travel to Boston, Mass.,
this weekend for two non-conference matchups against Northeastern
and Boston College. If Cole is held scoreless, she will get her
chance to break the record the following weekend as the team
returns to the TD Banknorth Sports Center on Halloween night to
open up the ECAC Hockey season against Harvard.
