    Saints Secure Overtime Wins, Fall Season Continues 

    •  Football—Junior Clayton Fogler landed a 38-yard field goal on the final play of overtime to power football to a 27-24 win over Union Saturday afternoon at Leckonby Stadium. The win marks the first win over Union since 2016 and the first overtime win for the Saints since 2007.
    • Women’s Golf—Senior Mary Grace McCann claimed the individual win to lead women's golf at the Union Fall Invitational at the Mohawk Golf Course in Schenectady. McCann shot an 80 to tie for second place with Union after round one on Saturday. She then shot a 78 on Sunday to finish the weekend with a 158 to claim the individual title and first-place finish.
    • Field Hockey—Junior Caroline Hamilton had the game-winning goal in the final minute of double overtime to cap off field hockey’s 3-2 comeback win over Vassar Saturday. St. Lawrence has now won four straight games and is on top of the Liberty League standings.
    • Men’s Soccer—Senior George Charalambous earned his fifth consecutive clean sheet, making nine saves as the St. Lawrence University men's soccer team battled to a 0-0 draw. The netminder's work between the posts, along with strong defensive tactics from the Saints, has led to the Scarlet and Brown not conceding since their 1-1 draw against SUNY Oneonta on Saturday, September 7.
    • Men’s Hockey—The Saints went 2-0 on the weekend, earning victories over RIT and Canisius. Senior Greg Lapointe’s OT winner lifted the Skating Saints past the Tigers 3-2 on Saturday. Sunday’s game provided some adversity for St. Lawrence, as they went down 2-0 to the Golden Griffins in the opening period. The Saints then scored five unanswered goals, including four in the second period, leading to a 5-2 win and a perfect 2-0-0 weekend. Sophomore men’s hockey goaltender Mason Kucenski was named MAC Goaltending Goalie of the Week and first-year Isaac Tremblay was named the Bitcoin Rookie of the Week, as announced by the ECAC office on Tuesday morning. Kucenski earned the weekly award after going 2-0-0 on the weekend picking up his first two career collegiate wins against RIT and Canisius. Tremblay picked up his first career point with an assist on St. Lawrence's first goal against Canisius, then tallied his first career goal in the second period to tie up the game and help spark the Saints' five unanswered goals en route to the victory.
