RAMS REVIEW
Suffolk bounced back from a setback to Johnson & Wales with a 2-0 cleansheet over Albertus Magnus to improve to 8-4 on the year and 6-3 in GNAC play, marking the first season since 2013 the Rams have reached the six-win mark in league action.  

The main ingredient to Suffolk's success offensively has been Caleigh O'Brien. The junior forward boasts team-leading numbers in all offensive categories including goals (8), assists (4) and points (20). Addisyn Lanza has reached the double-digit point mark as well with four markers and two helpers, while Julia Hunt is third on the team with three strikes and two set-ups.  

Allison Rodrigues has been the only set of gloves in goal for the blue-and-gold this season. The sophomore sports a .840 save percentage and a 1.21 GAA with six shutouts to her credit over 12 appearances. 

BLUE JAYS BREAKDOWN
St. Joseph (Conn.) has posted an overall record of 10-2-1 and a GNAC ledger of 5-2-1.
