Neumann captured their first win of the season with a 1-1 weekend split with SUNY Cortland in Cortland, New York. The Knight fell 2-1 to the Red Dragons on Friday but returned to the ice on Saturday reversing the score on SUNY Corland, recording a 2-1 win.
Freshman Jenelle Marier was selected as the first star of the game while goalie Teresa White was awarded the second star for her stellar maneuvers inside the pipes. White stopped 19 saves for the Knights in the 2-1 victory.
Carly Fitzsimmons scored her first non-exhibition goal of the season in the eighth minute of the first period off a feed from Jenelle Marier and Kaitlin Hein. Cortland tied the game twelve minutes into the second period sending both teams into the final intermission at 1-1. Knights' freshman Jenelle Marier had an outstanding night, scoring the eventual game winner half way through the third period, for her second point of the contest.
With today's win, the Knights record their first non-exhibition win of the 2005-2006 season. Neumann advances to 1-4-1 on the year while SUNY Cortland falls to 2-1-1.
Neumann will return to action on Saturday, December 3rd when they will travel to Buffalo, New York to face Buffalo State. The Puck is scheduled to drop at 2:00 pm.
