COACH'S QUOTE
"Tough outcome today in a game where we battled back twice and had a lot of momentum in the third period," said Head Coach Jim Plumer. "Hockey can be a fickle game as last night the pucks went in and today, we had a lot of possession and pressure but weren't able to capitalize. Credit to our special teams for a good day as it's an area we are working hard on. On to another big Hockey East weekend on the road at Maine next week."

HOW IT HAPPENED

For the second night in a row, Chavonne Truter opened scoring, finding the back of the net 4:21 into the opening frame, scoring on the Wildcats' first shot of the game when she tucked the puck in the goal with her backhand on a two-on-one rush, earning UNH the 1-0 advantage.
The Catamounts tied the score 1-1, 8:26 into the second period, scoring on the powerplay against the top penalty kill in the country, seeing Josie Hemp go d-to-d with Natalie Zarcone on the blue line, rifling a one timer on net, finding Evelyne Blais-Savoie who buried the rebound shot for her second goal in just as many games, earning her fourth tally on the season.
Less than two minutes later, UNH responded, scoring 9:41 into the second frame when Shea Verrier cashed in on her first goal of the season, regaining the Wildcat lead, 2-1.
Vermont bounced back, scoring on the powerplay again when Kaylee Lewis laced a pass to the point finding Ashley Kokavec, where she rifled a shot on net with lots of traffic in front. Hailey Eikos was there to clean up the rebound opportunity, securing her first goal of the season, tying the score, 2-2, with 11:22 remaining in regulation. After no goals were scored for the remainder of the final period, the game went to overtime.
73 seconds into the three-on-three overtime period, Boucher found the back of the net, deflecting an intial shot by Sadie Makokis who ripped a slapshot from the point, earning UNH the 3-2 overtime win from the Whittemore Center.
