NEW HAVEN, Conn. -- The Yale women's hockey program says goodbye
to its eight seniors this weekend with games against Quinnipiac
(Friday, 7:00 p.m., Yale All*Access, GameTracker) and Princeton
(Saturday, 4:00 p.m., WYBC 1340 AM, Yale All*Access, GameTracker).
With two games left, the Bulldogs still have some accomplishments
within reach. Wins in each of the remaining games would give the
team 13 wins for the season, which would be third all-time at Yale.
The senior class currently has 48 career wins, and one more would
give the Class of 2009 sole possession of third among all classes
in Yale history.
Yale-Quinnipiac
This will be the third meeting between the Bulldogs and the
Bobcats this season. Yale beat Quinnipiac 2-0 at the Nutmeg Classic
in November, a game that did not count in the ECAC Hockey
standings. Sophomore goalie Jackee Snikeris (Downingtown, Pa.) made
17 saves for the shutout, while junior defenseman Alyssa Clarke
(Donkin, N.S.) and senior forward Crysti Howser (Wilmette, Ill.)
scored goals. The Bulldogs also beat the Bobcats 2-1 at TD
Banknorth Sports Center three weeks ago, with freshman forward
Aleca Hughes (Westwood, Mass.) notching the game-winner with three
seconds left. Senior defenseman Helen Resor (Greenwich, Conn.) also
scored, and freshman goalie Genny Ladiges (Almonte, Ont.) made 16
saves.
Yale-Princeton
Yale rallied from a 1-0 deficit and a 2-1 deficit, but Princeton
ultimately prevailed 3-2 on a third-period goal by defenseman
Katherine Dineen when these two teams met at Baker Rink three weeks
ago. Freshman goalie Genny Ladiges (Almonte, Ont.) made 23 saves.
