OTTAWA GAME NOTES
- Major Stat Leaders
- Goals: Emma Lefebvre – 12
- Assists: Sadie Sider-Echenberg – 4
- Ottawa made a statement by beating two nationally ranked teams last week; #7 Queen's and #9 York. It took a stoppage time winner from Angelina Gendreau (her fourth goal in as many matches) to defeat the Gaels.
- Three outfield players have started every match for the Gee-Gees this season: Katerine Delev, Trinity Esprit and Sadie Sider-Echenberg.
- The Garnet and Grey on the verge of their second consecutive unbeaten season. It would be the eighth such campaign in program history.
- Ottawa clinched a playoff spot with their victory against Queen's. They can still finish as high as first in the entire conference, but would need the undefeated Nipissing Lakers to drop points from one of their remaining matches.
RMC GAME NOTES
- Major Stat Leaders
- Goals: Shania Fernandes – 1
- Assists: Sarah Nissan – 1
- It was a rough one for the Paladins the last time they faced the Gee-Gees. They failed to record a shot attempt in a 12-0 loss.
- The team's lone goal on the season came in a 1-1 draw with Carleton on Oct. 1.
- Sarah Nissan leads RMC in shots on goal with eight.
