RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk used a midweek matchup win over Anna Maria to get on the other side of .500 and move to 4-3-0 on the season, while the Rams sit 1-1-0 in conference contests after falling at Salem State, 6-4, last weekend.
The Rams have put together the 12th-best offense in the conference thanks in large part to Tess Adams' leading the way. The senior broke through the double digit point barrier in seven games with 13 on team-leading numbers of six goals and seven handouts lead Suffolk's 27-goal offense. Shana Cote is on the verge of double figures with nine points on five markers and four helpers with Jesse Kennedy's eight thanks to three goals and five set-ups good for third on the team.
Kristen Caporusso has been a main ingredient to the Rams' four victories. The sophomore goaltender, who has started six outings and holds a 4-2-0 record, brings a .904 save percentage and a 1.75 GAA into the weekend. Caporusso's three cleansheets put the netminder in third-place among NCAA DIII women's gloves.
