CC Bowlby scored twice in Dartmouth’s conference loss

HANOVER, N.H. — The Dartmouth women's hockey dropped an ECAC Hockey contest to St. Lawrence at Thompson Arena Friday afternoon. The Big Green jumped out to a 2-0 lead, but seven unanswered goals from the Saints clinched the win for the visitors by a score of 7-3.

Senior forward CC Bowlby found the back of the net twice to take sole ownership of the team lead in goals, as she has scored 10 times this year. Freshman Cally Dixon scored her third goal of the season, while Izee Powell, Currie Putrah, Lauren Messier and Sydney Herrington registered assists.

The Big Green and Saints were deadlocked in the faceoff circle, as each team won 25 draws over the course of the game. St. Lawrence featured seven different goal scorers to secure the road win.

Dartmouth opened the scoring 10:32 into the opening period, as a rebound bounced Dartmouth's way off a St. Lawrence defender. Bowlby fired a shot on goal, which careened off a Saint in front and into the back of the net to give the Big Green an early 1-0 lead.

At the end of the first period the Big Green held a one-goal lead, outshooting St. Lawrence 13-10 in the opening frame. Sophomore goalie Maggie Emerson was sharp in net, stopping every shot she faced in the first 20 minutes of play, while Lucy Morgan stopped 12 of 13.

Dartmouth extended its lead 6:13 into the second period. Messier forced a puck in front of Morgan's net, which Dixon shoveled toward the goal on her backhand. The shot beat St. Lawrence's netminder over her blocker as the Big Green took a 2-0 lead.

St. Lawrence bounced back quickly, as Julia Gosling scored a shorthanded unassisted goal just 1:49 after Dixon's goal to cut Dartmouth's lead in half. Shailynn Snow tied the contest 2:08 later.

The Saints took their first lead of the afternoon late in the period, as Gosling scored her second of the game. Taylor Lum scored just 38 seconds later as St. Lawrence took a 4-2 lead into the second intermission.

Gabi Jones, Abby Hustler and Rachel Bjorgan scored for the Saints, as the Dartmouth deficit ballooned to five goals in the third period. Bowlby scored her second of the afternoon on a net-mouth scramble to trim St. Lawrence's lead to four, as the Saints skated to a 7-3 win.

Dartmouth fell to 7-19-0 with a 3-16-0 ECAC Hockey conference record. St. Lawrence improved to 14-17-3 and 8-9-3 in conference action.

The Big Green are back in action tomorrow against No. 9/10 Clarkson for Senior Day at Thompson Arena. Puck drop is slated for 3 p.m. and the game will be available to stream on ESPN+ and Stretch Internet internationally. An audio stream will be available on DartmouthSports.com
