Burton Captures Final Ram of the Week of 2021

BOSTON – Ram Nation voted on Ram of the Week one last time via Twitter Poll in 2021 for the performances of Suffolk student-athletes from Dec. 6-12. 

AND THE WINNER IS … 
Maddy Burton of the Suffolk women's hockey team collected 41.8 percent of the 79 votes cast to pick up Ram of the Week title. The accolade comes after Burton was a crucial ingredient to the Rams' 4-3 overtime win at Trinity Dec. 11. The graduate student forward scored back-to-back goals in a 3:28 span in the third period to even the score and force an extra session. Burton set-up the game-winner put away by Madison Duff that lifted Suffolk to victory.
