02/13/13	@MTA	W1-0 More Keyna Marcelline’s goal with 1:23 to go broke the scoreless deadlock and lifted STU past Mount Allison on Wednesday night. The goal spoiled the shutout bid for Kate O’Brien, who made her first career AUS start in the Mounties goal. Marcelline dug the puck out of a crowd in the slot and fired it blocker side past O’Brien. The teams combined to wire six shots off the post and corssbar. But the Tommies were able to hold on and squeak out the win. The win was the second 1-0 victory in a row – one for each of the Tommies netmiders Sharun (Monday) and Wolfe (tonight). The Tommies improve to 15-7-1, good enough to clinch second spot in the AUS standings. Close
02/11/13	UPEI	W1-0 More The Tommies got an important hard-fought win over the UPEI Panthers on Monday night to move three points up on SMU in the standings and three up on UPEI for second in the AUS. On a night that featured eight power play opportunities for STU and three for UPEI, the only goal came shorthanded. With six and a half minutes remaining in the first, Kayla Blackmore tracked down the puck and took it in on a breakaway, went to the backhand and roofed over the shoulder of Marie Deschenes. From then on, the Tommies had 14 minutes on the power play, only to be shut down by the Panthers' penalty kill and Deschenes. Despite spending their fair share of time shorthanded, the Panthers had their chances coming close only to be turned away by Julia Sharun who turned a very solid performance and her fifth shutout of the season. The game wraps up the season series with the Tommies, with the home teams winning each game and the Tommies not allowing a goal on home ice. STU hits the road to face Mount A on Wednesday to make up the game scheduled for last Saturday. Close

Tommies Women's Hockey: A Quick Look Back at 2011-2012

Published: Thursday, Mar 29, 2012

This year’s edition of the Tommies Women’s Hockey Program came into the season as a young team looking to compete game in game out this season.

In preseason, they made the finals of the Moncton Invitational tournament but struggled in the first half of the regular season, though their point totals kept them in the race.

In the second half, the Tommies came alive as they reeled off victories against fourth ranked St. FX and twice against sixth ranked Moncton including a heart stopping overtime victory in the final Tommies game ever to be played at the LBR.

This set them in fifth to finish the season and in the AUS playoff tournament. The parity of the league showed once again as all six teams went through the tournament with identical one and one records.

Unfortunately, the team did not advance to the finals but the they did show well in the AUS awards with Kayla Blackmore being named a second team all-star and recipient of the AUS Marion Hillard Award for commitment to athletics, academics and community. Kayla was also named as St. Thomas’ nominee for the AUS James Bayer Award and Danielle Miller was named to the conference all-rookie team.

Team Awards:
Rookie of the year: Danielle Miller
Most improved: Carly Critch
Top defensive player: Courtney Fox
MVP: Kayla Blackmore
