Knights Shocked by Robert Morris, 3-1

October 19, 2007

Moon Township, PA - Over the past two years, the Clarkson University Women's Hockey team outscored Robert Morris 10-1 in three meetings, but the Golden Knights streak against the Colonials came to an end on Friday night as the Green and Gold were surprised by Robert Morris 3-1.

The Golden Knights saw their season-opening, four-game unbeaten streak snapped and fell to 3-1-1 overall. The Colonials earned their first win of the season on Friday and moved to 1-3-0. The two teams will play again on Saturday afternoon.

Clarkson started Friday's game as if the results wouldn't be different from the past three meeting against the Colonials as Jessica Cloutier (Parker, CO) scored her first goal of the season with just 3:35 expired from the first period. Freshmen Rebecca Gordon (St. Catharines, ONT) and Caitlin Oleksa (Battle Creek, MI) each picked up assists on the game's opening score.

Though the Knights narrowly out shot Robert Morris in the second and third periods, Clarkson was unable to score again. However, the Colonials came through with a score in the second period and two goals in the third.

Chelsea Walkland scored at 14:11 in the second period to tie the score, and two goals midway through the third did in the Knights when Alissa Dorman and Kathryn Traynor each scored their first goals of the season. The Colonials scored only one goal in the first three games of the season before tallying three times against the Knights.

Clarkson out shot Robert Morris, 26-18. Eve Grandmont-Berube (Drummondville, QUE) stopped 15 shots for the Knights and Brianne McLaughlin made 25 saves for the Colonials.
