UConn and Smith weekend

It was a fun weekend at Underhill when we hosted UConn and Smith. The UConn game ended in a gut wrenching loss (3-2), but we played the best we have all season and the last 45 seconds were really exciting. The Smith game was slightly less exciting but fortunately resulted in an 8-0 win. (Emily scored 4 goals!!!!). Chelsea and Catherine both contributed to the shutout and everyone played really well.

This coming Saturday we have an away game at MIT at 5pm. Those of you in the Boston area should come check us out!

Away Weekend

Bates had mixed results this weekend defeating Fairfield 13-2 and losing to UMO 3-0. Sammi scored an impressive 4 goals on Saturday followed closely by Emily with 3. Kathleen scored 2, and Jo, Chelsea, and Diane each had one. Catherine played a great game in net and helped us keep our lead throughout the game.
Despite the plethora of penalties while playing Maine, Bates played a great game and is ready for our rematch at the end of January. After Thanksgiving break, we have 2 upcoming home games to end the fall semester.

Great Start

Bates got off to a great start to the season defeating Fairfield 10-1. Sammi got us off on a roll with the first goal of the season. Seven other goals were scored in the first period followed by one in the second and one in the third. Other goal scorers were Jo with 2 goals, Eve with 2 goals, Sarah, Kathleen, Kat, Zaihra, and Alison. Congrats to the ladies who scored their first goal ever!

We play Fairfield again this Saturday followed by a game at UMO.
