In the world of NCAA sports, it's conference tournament time for many Tewksbury athletes. After a long winter season, postseason play is what defines programs in the history books.
At Suffolk, senior Cassidy Gruning has collected two points in the month of February. The senior forward notched an assist in a February 3rd tie with the University of New England as well as a February 4th win over Nichols.
Gruning has four goals and six assists for a total of ten points as the Rams skated to a 16-7-2 record this season following a 5-1 win over Curry on Friday.
For the first time in Rams history, Suffolk secured the Commonwealth Coast Conference title, therefore earning themselves a No. 1 seed in the conference tournament. The Rams await a Saturday puck drop in the semi-finals against either the University of New England or Curry.
