Women's Hockey picks up right where they left off with 5-1 victory over RIT

Mendota Heights, Minn. – St. Thomas Women's Hockey continued their unbeaten streak while dealing the Rochester Institute of Technology Tigers a 5-1 defeat at the Saint Thomas Ice Arena on Friday night.
The Tommies concluded 2022 in impressive fashion completing their first WCHA sweep in program history after taking down the #8 team in the nation in a shootout the weekend prior. They picked up directly where they left off and brought their winning streak up to a Division I program best three games.
With 10:10 remaining in the first period, sophomore Lauren Stenslie danced her way through the slot and tossed in a beautifully placed wrist shot by the RIT goaltender, Sarah Coe, to give the Purple a 1-0 lead. Kate Haug assisted on the play, her fourth point in two games. That was all the scoring the Tommies could muster despite outshooting the Tigers 13-4 and being granted one power play late in the opening frame.
The second period began much like how the first period ended, with the Tommies on the power play. The Tigers were charged with four penalties in the period and St. Thomas did not capitalize on any of their power play chances.
The Tigers were given two power play opportunities in the middle period and managed one goal by St. Thomas netminder Alexa Dobchuk. That goal came just 53 seconds after Gabby Billing turned a forecheck steal into the Tommies' first shorthanded goal of the season.
Special teams play continued when just 2:26 into the third period Mia Tsilemos was sent to the penalty box for her second trip on the night. On their sixth and final power play chance, Allie Monrean scored her second goal of the season and gave the Tommies a chance to breathe with a 3-1 lead. Haley Maxwell added her fourth assist of the season on the play.
Five minutes later Anna Solheim sauced a pass to Gabby Billing who scored her second goal of the game. Eighty-three seconds after that, Maddy Clough tallied her fourth goal on the year giving St. Thomas a 5-1 lead.
The Purple outshot the Tigers 32-18 and outdrew them 30-21.
RIT goaltender Sarah Coe was handed the loss allowing all five Tommie goals while making 24 saves. She was relieved with just over ten minutes to go by Sophia Bellina who made three saves.
The Tommies were delighted to receive three strong periods from Alexa Dobchuk who stopped 17 of 18 shots faced for her second win of the season.
St. Thomas has not been defeated in four straight contests and its record sits at 6-14-1 with 13 more games on the schedule. The Tommies were victorious in five games all last season.
