Lake Forest Takes Three of Four Points at Finlandia
After a scoreless opening period on Saturday, the home team scored first at the 6:08 mark of the second. A power play goal by Lake Forest sophomore Maggie Bresser (Fond du Lac, Wis./Waupun H.S.) tied the score at 12:42. Sophomore Courtney Bean (Peoria, Ill./Team Illinois) and freshman Ricki Kirsch (Portland, Ore./Northwest Selects) assisted on Bresser’s second score of the season. The Foresters took the lead at the 3:01 mark of the third period on freshman Sam Herron’s (Clinton Township, Mich./Victory Honda) first career goal. She was assisted by sophomore Jamie Sauer (Eagle River, Wis./Northland Pines H.S.). The Lions, however, tied the game while on the power play at the 10:08 mark and neither team was able to score again. Forester sophomore Ryann McCarthy (Lombard, Ill./Team Illinois) recorded 18 saves in the game. Freshman Alyssa Wintermute (Belmont, Ont./St. Thomas Panthers) was in goal for Lake Forest on Sunday and stopped seven shots on goal in each of the three periods. The victory was the first of her career in league play and raised her record on the year to 2-1-0 and save percentage to .911. Senior Laura Wilson (Corunna, Ont./Sarnia Sting) led off the scoring 42 seconds into the second period. The power play goal was her third score of the year and was assisted by Bean. The Lions tied the game on a power play goal of their own at 9:51. Senior Kerry Gotowka (West Simsbury, Conn./Westminster School) scored the game-winning goal with 4:38 to play in the contest. Wilson earned the assist on Gotowka’s third goal of the year – all on the power play. Lake Forest will play a pair of NCHA road games again next weekend (December 7-8). The Foresters will face off at UW-River Falls Friday night at 7:00 and at UW-Eau Claire at 2:00 Saturday afternoon. Saturday's Box Score
