RAMS RUNDOWN
Suffolk fell in its two-game series at Adrian to hold a 9-5-1 overall record. The Rams return to their CCC calendar after a month away and look to improve upon their league-leading 7-1-1 ledger.

Lily O'Neil has been the usual starter for Suffolk in net. She boasts a 1.71 GAA and .935 save percentage in her 13 appearances. Julia McLellan and Hannah Gordon are unbeaten in between the pipes. The former holds a 0.57 GAA and .978 save percentage in her two games played, while Gordon sports a 1.00 GAA and .929 save percentage in her single game played.
