Women's Hockey Falls to Colby

The Colby College women's hockey team defeated Hamilton College, 3-1 this evening in a NESCAC contest at Sage Rink. The Mules got on the board first when Kate Sweeney (Milton, MA) scored a power play goal on an assist from Heather DeVito (Arlington, MA). The White Mules made it 2-0 when Jill Young (Edina, MN) tallied a goal at the 8:37 mark of the second period on assists from Carrie Swiderski (Watertown, CT) and Lauren Gremelspacher (Granby, CT). Hamilton cut the lead to 2-1 when Emily Koren (Buffalo, NY) jabbed home the loose puck in front of the net.

However, Colby would put the game out of reach when Caitlin Krause (Keene, NH) scored late in the second period on an assist from Sweeney. Hamilton goalie Jen Kroleski (New Rochelle, NY) made 32 saves, while Lynn Hasday (Rockville Centre, NY) made 19 saves for Colby. Colby will host Bowdoin College on Saturday, December 8 at 3 p.m.
