Game Highlights

• Bowdoin took the lead 10:40 into the second period with a power play goal. Jackie Miller corralled the puck behind the net and fed Izzi Stoddard on the left dot. Stoddard fired a one-timer through traffic to best Chloe Heiting. The power play goal was the first surrendered by the Ephs this season.
• Two minutes into the final frame Maddie Tix nearly found the tape of Brianna Hill in a two-on-one, but the feed was just beyond reach. Hill had a second opportunity minutes later, again with a dish from Tix, and this time buried a shot in Marquez's chest.
• With 13 minutes remaining, Ellia Chiang had a breakaway down the center and forced Marquez to make a sprawling save at the right post.
• Angelina Joyce rang the post midway through the frame, after Bowdoin successfully killed of a 5-on-3 power play.
• Surgenor iced the game with an empty-netter from the left boards, diving from just inside the blue line.
