Ephs Lose to Trinity 4-2Williams Sports Info - January 27, 2008
WILLIAMSTOWN – Giving up all four goals in the third period, the Williams women's ice hockey team lost to Trinity College on Saturday afternoon by a score of 4-2. The Ephs drop to 1-12-2, while the Bantams improve to 13-2-2 with the conference win.
The game remained scoreless until halfway through the second period when sophomore Tracey Ferriter, assisted by junior Sam Tarnasky, found the back of the net to put the Ephs up 1-0. Then at 16:11, first year Allison Page skated past Trinity's defense to get a shot on goal. With Tarnaky connecting on the rebound, the Ephs extended their lead to two.
Although the Ephs picked up a penalty at 19:16, sophomore goaltender Betsy Laurin made a great glove save right before the buzzer to hold on to the Ephs' 2-0 lead.
Trinity quickly took advantage of Williams' shorthandedness, scoring less than a minute into the third period. Kim Weiss netted the goal for the Bantams, sending the puck off the left post and into the goal. She was assisted by Laura Komarek. With the Ephs receiving another penalty, Trinity scored its second goal at 2:37. When a shot to Laurin's left pulled her out of position, Trinity quickly passed behind the net to Michelle Chee who was waiting on the post.
Scoring on the power play, Chee was assisted by Britney McKenna and Kim Weiss. Less than 30 seconds later, Williams sent yet another player to the penalty box. The Bantams made good use of the power play, scoring at the 3:20 mark. Following a scramble in front of the goal, Chee found the back of the net to grab the lead for Trinity. McKenna picked up an assist on the play. Seeming to regroup after a timeout, the Ephs allowed only one more goal in the period. Hadley Gleason netted the final goal for Trinity at 14:56 to bring the score to 4-2. This would remain the final score of the game, as the Ephs failed to score again.
"We played a good, solid 40 minutes of hockey today. We are showing ourselves that we're a good hockey team. We just need to play a full 60 minutes," coach Shannon Bryant said.
Playing particularly well for the Ephs this weekend were defenders Joey Lye and Sarah Nowakowski and forward Torrey Taussig.
"Joey and Sarah have both been playing much more offensively throughout the whole weekend and they certainly helped to create a lot more offensive opportunities for us," said Bryant. As for Taussig, Bryant remarked, "Torrey was excellent this weekend. She just elevated her play."
The Ephs will travel to Bowdoin on Friday, Feb. 1, for their next game, which starts at 7 p.m.
