RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk (1-3-0, 1-1-0 GNAC) found its way in the win column for the first time in the Ashley Van Vechten era with an offensive onslaught of Anna Maria Sept. 12. 

The Rams' offense has been propelled by underclassmen with Caleigh O'Brien's four goals leading the way. Julia Hunt is second on the squad with three markers to her credit after producing a hat trick versus the AMCATS Wednesday. Carley Pearce rounds out the top three scorers for Suffolk with two goals to her credit.

Suffolk has used the two-headed goaltending contingent of Julia Fieldsend and Allison Rodrigues to guard the net this season. Rodrigues picked up the lone win and brings in a .750 save percentage and a 2.90 goals against average. Fieldsend, who has earned the nod three times, boasts a .714 save percentage and a 3.37 goals against average.

HATS OFF
Julia Hunt wrote her name in the scorebook for the first time in her collegiate career in thrilling fashion as the freshmen notched a hat trick in the first 17 minutes of action against the AMCATS Sept. 12. She became the first player to net three or more goals in one goal since Alexandra Nagri '18 did so in the 10-0 win over Mass. Maritime Oct. 23, 2017.

CHARGERS CATCH UP
Colby Sawyer brings an identical 1-3-0 overall record and 1-1-0 league ledger to Eastie with the Chargers lone win coming in shutout fashion at home over Simmons, 3-0.
