RAMS REVIEW
Suffolk ran its win streak to a season-best three after sweeping its NEHC weekend with Southern Maine and New England College December 13-14 to bring a 5-8-2 record into Sunday's showdown.  

The Rams offense got going as of late, scoring 12 of their 30 goals in the last three games including a second-high seven in a 7-3 triumph over Salem State December 7. Shana Cote and Maddy Burton have each eclipsed the double-digit point plateau. Cote leads the offense with 11 points behind a team-high six goals and five assists. Burton tops the assists with seven to her credit to go along with three markers for 10 points.  

Julia McLellan and Kristen Caporusso have shared time defending the net for the blue-and-gold. McLellan is the go-to starter for Suffolk and holds a 3.15 GAA and .892 save percentage. Caporusso, meanwhile, brings in a 2.19 GAA and .897 save percentage. 

BANTAMS BREAKDOWN
Trinity had a hectic three days with back-to-back overtime outings, a 2-1 win at Bowdoin Thursday and a 3-3 stalemate at Williams Friday. The 4-3-1 Bantams had one day off before heading to Boston.  

Cassidy McNeely and Camille von Steinbergs have each found the back of the net three times to lead the Bantams' 21-goal offense. Von Steinberg shares top on the team with six points with Sierra Lee who has a team-high five assists and one marker. 

Kai-Lilly Karpman is Trinity's go-to goalie, playing all, but one of the team's eight games. She holds a 2.25 GAA and .890 save percentage.
