#5/5 PENN STATE 3, LINDENWOOD 0
Box Score | Game Highlights
University Park, Pa. – Penn State fired 66 shots on goal – the third-highest total all-time in an AHA conference game – and freshman Morgan Stickney (St. Charles, Mo.) stopped all 18 shots she faced for her first career shutout, a 3-0 Nittany Lion win against Lindenwood Saturday to sweep the weekend series.

Defenseman Danica Maynard (Lake Country, B.C.) scored the game’s first goal late in the first period on assists from Sofia Ismael (St. George, Ont.) and Abby Stonehouse (Blenheim, Ont.). After a scoreless second period in which Penn State had 29 shots on goal, Grace Outwater (Picton, Ont.) built the lead to 2-0 with a shorthanded tally in the third. Ismael added an empty-net goal in the third for the 3-0 final.

Outwater has a goal in five of her six games this season and five shorthanded goals in her career, all in conference games. That is tied for the fifth-most career SHGs in AHA play.

Lindenwood freshman Ebba Ridderstolpe (Botkyrka, Sweden) stopped 63 shots in her fifth consecutive start, one save shy of former Lion Nicole Hensley’s single-game record for an AHA conference game.

Newark, Del. – Union scored on a penalty shot, a power-play and at even-strength in a three-goal first period, rebounding from Friday’s loss to salvage a split in the weekend series at Delaware with a 5-2 win.

Delaware’s Francesca Barressi (Ottawa, Ont.) cut the lead to 3-1 with her second goal of the season, but Union responded with another power-play goal.

The teams traded goals in the third period as well, with Katelynn Charlton (Brampton, Ont.) scoring for the Blue Hens but Union responded 33 seconds later.

BROWN 3, RIT 1
Box Score | Game Highlights
Rochester, N.Y. – Brown answered RIT’s game-tying goal with a goal of its own just 19 seconds later and held on for a 3-1 win and series sweep in Rochester Saturday afternoon.

The Bears got on the board first with a Sam Broz power-play goal at 11:53 of the second period. RIT took advantage of a power play of its own less than four minutes later, with Zoe Ziotas (Markham, Ont.) scoring her AHA-leading seventh goal of the season. Ziotas has scored at least a goal in six of eight games this season.

Brown’s Martina Accardi got the eventual game-winner just after Ziotas tied the score, the second goal of the weekend for Accardi. The visitors added an empty netter, dropping the Tigers to 0-6-0 in non-conference play thus far.
