Five Tommies score in Saturday’s 7-2 win at home
MENDOTA HEIGHTS, Minn. – On Saturday evening the St. Thomas Women's Hockey team went head-to-head against Lindenwood for the second game of the series. This was a fast-paced game from start to finish. The Tommies took home the win tonight with a final score of 7-2.
The Tommies scored a total of four goals in the first period, to be followed by three more in the second. This is the second time this season the Tommies have netted seven goals in a single game, tying the program record.
RECAP
Freshman, Cara Sajevic opened scoring for the Tommies midway through the first period, marking her first collegiate goal.
The Tommie offense wasn't done there, as they continued to make an offensive push and score three more goals in the first period. First-years, Ella Boerger, Keara Parker, and Cara Sajevic each scored goals on the power play, all within the final five minutes of the first frame. Junior, Maddy Clough assisted on all three of the power play goals for the Tommies.
The second period began with some fast-paced play and the Tommies scoring three more goals. Junior, Alli Pahl set the tone for the period, scoring her first of the season. The depth of the Tommie offense continued to overwhelm the Lions, as Abby Promersberger and Ella Boerger found the back of the net for the sixth and seventh goals of the game. Lindenwood offense found a way to capitalize on opportunities late in the game, scoring with two minutes left in the second period.
Third period play remained scoreless, until the Lions scored their second of the night, with just four minutes remaining in the game.
Goaltender, Olivia King earned her second win of the season and second of her career, making 11 saves.
The Tommies hit the ice with power tonight and took home a 7-2 win against the Lindenwood Lions.

Quotables
Coach Johnson on the second sweep of the season:
"Yesterday we played well, we just couldn't finish. I thought today we kind of overwhelmed with depth. It was really fun to see a lot of forwards get involved, not just on the score sheet, but just in general."
Coach Johnson on opening conference play at the Xcel Energy Center next weekend:
"It's going to be a special day for everybody involved. To play not only a WCHA game, but against crosstown rival in Minnesota, and then to play with the Xcel Energy Center. For people that have grown up in the State of Hockey here it's a fun place to play, it's a fun place to go to watch hockey. It'll be an awesome environment, I'm excited for it and I can't wait to see more players perform.
Up Next
St. Thomas will open conference play and take on the Minnesota Golden Gophers on Friday (Oct. 13), at the Xcel Energy Center, and Saturday (Oct. 14), back at home, both games being played at 4:00 p.m. For any and all information pertaining to the St. Thomas women's hockey team head to tommiesports.com and on Twitter and Instagram @TommieWHockey.
