Gaiters Fall 1 Goal Short Against Defending Champs

The women's hockey team looked to continue their unbeaten streak to start this season as they traveled to face the defending national champion Concordia Stingers. The Gaiters, sitting at 2-0, tried to put a damper on the Stingers banner ceremony. They did just that when Justine Turcotte scored with just under 2 minutes to go in the first period. Concordia came back down on the ensuing faceoff and tied the game, setting a blank sheet for the 2nd period. Another late goal in the 2nd period, this time from Marjorie Bolduc, tied the game at 2. The Stingers once again responded with a goal before the horn and went into the third up 3-2. Good goaltending from both sides in the 3rd period held the score as it was and the Gaiters ultimately fell 3-2. 

For Bishop's...
... Marjorie Bolduc and Justine Turcotte both found the back of the net in this one
...Angelique Pagé got herself an assist
...Charley Wing (Huntsville, Ont./Mother Teresa C.S.S.) was outstanding, stopping 29/32 shots, including 17 in the 3rd period

Next Up
