HOCKEY EAST GOALTENDER OF THE MONTH
Corinne Schroeder - Boston University
Junior; Elm Creek, Manitoba
Among netminders who have played more than two
games, Schroeder (4-0-1) leads the NCAA in save percentage
(.956) and is second in goals-against average (1.18),
with that GAA also leading Hockey East. Schroeder has yet
to allow more than two goals in a single game this season,
highlighted by a 38-save shutout at UConn on Oct. 18 to
give BU a 1-0 victory. Only three of the six goals she has
allowed this year have been at even strength. Schroeder
has been particularly strong in the third period, stopping
47 of the 48 shots she has faced in the final frame for a
.979 save percentage, which ranks second in the country
among goalies who have played at least three games.
