BOSTON, Mass. - Graduate student Peyton Anderson and freshman Allie Lalonde each potted goals in the first minute of action to lead the No. 15 Northeastern women's hockey team to a 2-1 victory over the New Hampshire Wildcats on Friday night at Matthews Arena.
- Northeastern scored two goals 36 seconds apart in the first minute of the game to jump out to a 2-0 lead. Peyton Anderson scored after junior Skylar Irving won the faceoff for the Huskies, just 15 seconds into the contest.
- Freshman Allie Lalonde followed up Anderson's tally with her seventh goal of the year. Lalonde sniped in a feed from sophomore Holly Abela after sophomore Jules Constantinople striped New Hampshire of the puck.
- The Wildcats were able to get one back as the first period ended 2-1 in favor of the Huskies.
- Neither side found the back of the net in the second or third periods. UNH pulled its goaltender with 1:29 left to play to try and find the equalizer, but the Huskies staved off the Wildcats and claimed the 2-1 win for their first victory at home in 2024.
- Goaltender Gwyneth Philips finished her outing with 24 saves, including 11 in the second period.
