Warrior women sweep Quinnipiac

The Wayne State women's team (9-12-3, 2-2-0) posted two College Hockey America wins last weekend over CHA newcomer Quinnipiac.

Saturday afternoon, freshman Ashley King broke the school record with her fifth game-winning goal of the season as the Warriors took a 3-1 win. King also scored another goal along with a single from sophomore Laura Monk.

Freshman Val Turcotte made 13 saves for the win, but lost her shutout with 7:50 left in the third period on a goal from Kathryn Dallimore.

On Sunday, Monk's goal at 17:37 of the third period gave WSU a 2-1 victory. Freshman Kristy Leng had given the Warriors a 1-0 lead in the first period before Dallimore scored for the visitors early in the second period.

Turcotte again earned the win in net with a 19-save outing.

WSU is idle until a two-game conference series at Niagara University on Feb. 11-12.
