SHUTOUT SENSATION
Allison Rodrigues has been a stand-out goalkeeper throughout her career and sealed her spot as one of Suffolk's greats Saturday with her 19th collegiate shutout. That mark ties a Rams' record that was set by Melissa Brouillette '15 in 2014.

The senior captain, who has been limited to just three seasons after her junior campaign was cancelled due to COVID-19, has the chance to break that mark Tuesday in Bristol, Rhode Island, and tie the single-season shutout mark with her ninth of the year that is also held by Brouillette since 2011.

Rodrigues enters Tuesday's tilt with eight shutouts this year, which is the fourth most in the NCAA Division III. 

WHAT'S NEXT?
Suffolk turns its attention to the CCC post-season with the eight-team field bracket set to be released following the completion of Tuesday's action. First quarter is set to take place this Saturday, Oct. 30 at the four highest seeds.
