SUFFOLK SCORES

RAMS RUNDOWN
At 2-0-0, Suffolk is off to its best start since 2011. The Rams began their season with two consecutive triumphs for just the third time in the record books after blanking both Elms, 1-0, and Framingham State, 3-0, last week.  

Allison Rodrigues has been the backbone to the shutouts. The senior netminder has turned aside all five shots she has faced. 

Freshmen Lily Christian and Aislinn Servaes have contributed offensively in each of the Rams' outings. Christian leads the way with five points on a squad-best two markers and one set-up, while Servaes three-point stat line is split evenly between goals (1) and assists (1). Ashley Cassino-Henriquez has found the back of the twine as well with one goal to her credit. Kylie FlynnKlaudia Rushi and Alex Stamatos have each dished out one helper. 

BLUES BREAKDOWN
Wellesley holds an identical record to Suffolk's, 2-0-0, after besting both Simmons and Curry by identical margins, 2-0.  

Three of the Blues four goals have come off the boost of Eliza Roy. Marleigh Ausbrooks, meanwhile is responsible for the other tally, while Ella Pierce and Mia Voice hold the only assist for Wellesley with one apiece.  

Lauren Park and Kendall Lincoln have each split time in net. Park brings in two saves and Lincoln has one to her credit.
