Women's Hockey

The Big Green women's hockey swept Colgate in the first round of the Eastern College Athletic Conference's postseason hockey tournament with a 4-3 victory on Friday, followed by a 4-2 win on Saturday. Dartmouth (18-7-6, 15-4-5 ECAC), ranked third in the ECAC, came into the series undefeated for the month of February. Fresh off of a 4-1 victory over Colgate (12-17-5, 9-11-4 ECAC) in the regular season finale, the Big Green was primed to ride this momentum through the first round of playoffs. On Friday, Larissa Roche '11 scored the first goal of the night early into the first period. The Raiders quickly responded, beginning an intense fight for the lead that persisted until the game's final minute. Dartmouth scored again before the end of the first period on a goal by Sarah Parsons '10 but was answered by a Colgate goal a minute into the second. Both teams increased the level of competition in the second period, recognizing that a win would not be easy for either squad. "It's playoff time, so there is always a struggle to stay ahead," Sarah Newnam '09 said.
