MONTREAL – The Plattsburgh State women's hockey team played the second game of the Theresa Humes Tournament Sunday night against University of Ottawa knocking off the Gee-Gees 4-2.
Ottawa would jump out to an early 2-0 lead converting on two power play goals. First was Cynthia Whissell deflecting a shot by Vicki Lermie from the left point by Cardinals goaltender Camille Leonard. The goal also came via a tip-in when Camille Pauck-Therrien fired a shot from inside the right circle that was deflected out of the air by Marimee Godbout-Parent and by the shoulder of Leonard.
The Cardinals would get on the board 8:21 into the second period to cut the Gee-Gees lead to 2-1. Giovanna Senese would receive the puck behind the net from Melissa Sheeran before throwing the puck into the slot to an open Kayla Meneghin for the one-timer,
Erin Brand would find the equalizer with five minutes remaining in the second period capitalizing on the power play. Brand received a cross ice pass from Bridget Balisy before dekeing the top defender and coasting into the slot for a backhander over the glove of Gee-Gees' goalie Sarah-Maude Labrecque.
With a power play carrying over into the beginning of the third period, the Cardinals would gather a 3-2 lead. Melissa Ames was stationed far post when she recived a cross ice pass from the right circle by Jordan Lipson for an easy tap-in.
Meneghin would provide the dagger with 44 seconds left in the game when she sunk an empty netter from the Cardinals own defensive zone.
Leonard played an outstanding game in net. After giving up two early goals she stifled the rest of the Gee-Gees' chances including numerous breakaways and odd man rushes. Her counterpart Labrecque made 49 saves on 52 shots for Ottawa.
Despite being down 2-0 and outshot 11-4 midway through the first, Plattsburgh State would dominate a 49-13 shot advantage and score four unanswered.
The two teams combined for 18 penalties, the Cardinals taking 10. Ottawa would start the game 2-3 on the man advantage before going 0-7 done the stretch. Plattsburgh State finished 2-8 on the power play.
The Cardinals will return to the ice tomorrow afternoon at 1 p.m. to wrap up their Theresa Humes Tournament against host Concordia University.
