Three Wins Move Shamrocks Into Fifth In JWHL January 18th, 2012
Madi Litchfield's two shut-outs helped move the Shamrocks into
fifth overall in the JWHL
The 19 White garnered its third straight winning weekend in JWHL action, with a three win performance on the campus of the University of Minnesota. The six points moved them into fifth overall in the league, five behind fourth place Washington Pride with five league games remaining in the regular season.
“We picked up three wins and six important points, and we didn’t even play our best hockey,” said head coach Josh Hechter.
The weekend started off with a tough 2-1 loss to Balmoral Hall. Trailing 2-0 in the third, the Shamrocks cut the lead in half on a powerplay strike by Heather Schwarz (Naugatuck, CT), who potted the rebound of a Cassy Opela (Penfield, NY) shot from the point. Dakota Woodworth (Carlisle, MA) looked to have tied the game at the buzzer, but the goal was waived off as the officials ruled that time had expired.
