How It Happened
UTICA, N.Y. – Utica College got out to a fast 3-0 start and Lebanon Valley was unable to catch up, resulting in a 7-0 loss to the Pioneers on Sunday afternoon in UCHC women's ice hockey action. The Dutchmen dropped to 2-17-2, 1-12-1 UCHC, while Utica jumped to 12-9-2, 7-5-2 UCHC.

The Pioneers' first two scores came 12 seconds apart, as Jennifer Arts scored at 5:11 and Carlie Smith added another goal at 5:23 of the first. Then, with two minutes to go in the opening period, Smith tallied her second goal of the game to give Utica a 3-0 lead after one period of action.

LVC played a solid second period and didn't allow any goals. Jill Moffatt made 21 stops in the period, but the Dutchmen's offense struggled to create scoring chances thanks to a tough Utica defense. Unfortunately, in the third period, the Pioneers tacked on four goals by four different players to sink the Dutchmen and come away with the 7-0 win.

Inside the Numbers
 - Rachel Havrylkoff had two shots on goal for LVC.
 - Moffatt finished with 60 saves in 49:16 of action. Victoria Lahey played the final 10:44 and made 13 stops.
 - Emma Stillwaggon recorded 11 faceoff-wins, while Chloe Glass added nine.
 - For Utica, Rebecca Brown and Olivia Hirschy registered a goal and two assists each, while Smith had two goals for the Pioneers.

Who's Next?
LVC will wrap up its 2017-18 season inside Hersheypark Arena next weekend when the Dutchmen host Chatham for a two-game series beginning on Saturday at 2 p.m. and finishing up Sunday at 2 p.m.
