SUFFOLK SCORES

RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk sits atop the CCC standings with a 4-0-0 league ledger. Overall, the Rams are 5-1-0 with its lone loss coming Beantown rival UMass Boston, 2-1, Oct. 29.   

Suffolk's squad sports the only skaters in the conference with double figure points through the first six games of the season in Shana Cote and Miranda Gaudet. Cote has a dozen points thus far with five goals and seven handouts, all of which sit atop the league list. Gaudet, meanwhile, owns 10 points with three markers and seven helpers. As a team, the Rams have poured in a conference-high 26 goals.  

In net, all three blue-and-gold netminders have competed. Lily O'Neil has the most action under her belt with four games played. In that time the junior has built a 1.52 GAA and .917 save percentage. Hannah Gordon and Julia McLellan have each played one game. Gordon holds a 1.00 GAA and .929 save percentage, while McLellan has not allowed a puck past her this season as she turned aside all 21 shots she has faced. 

GET TO KNOW THE GULLS
Endicott (4-2-0, 3-1-0 CCC) saw its perfect CCC mark come to an end last week as the Gulls fell to Western New England, 3-2, in overtime.  

The Gulls' 20-point offense is powered by Kaylee Liberty's team-high eight points with five goals and three assists. Teaghan Hall (3g, 3a) and Madison Hentosh (1g, 4a) are consistent factors in Endicott's scoring conversation as well.  

Michaele O'Brien and Bailey Theiben have split time in between the pipes for the Gulls playing three games apiece. O'Brien sports a 2.00 GAA and .9215 save percentage, while Thieben brings in a 2.29 GAA and .863 save percentage. Both Gulls goalies are 2-1-0 on the year.
