    Saints Earn ECAC Accolades and Net Wins

    Women’s Hockey: Senior captain Abby Hustler was named the ECAC Hockey Forward of the Week, presented by Bluebird Hotels, the league office announced Tuesday morning. Hustler notched a goal and three assists, as the team recorded a sweep over Harvard and Dartmouth at Appleton Arena over the weekend. Hustler leads the Saints with six goals and 16 assists for 22 points this season. Hustler's 22 points ties for eighth in the ECAC. 

    Men’s Hockey: Sophomore Mason Kucenski was named MAC Goaltending Goalie of the Week for the third time this season, as announced by the ECAC league office on Monday morning. Kucenski started both games this past weekend for the Saints going 1-0-1 and playing 125 minutes between the pipes. The netminder stopped 29 shots in the Scarlet and Brown's 3-2 win over No. 13/14 Dartmouth on Friday and made 26 in a shutout against Harvard on Saturday to complete his weekend. 

    Men’s Squash: First-year Grégory Malsang took Rookie of the Week honors at the conference level after earning his first career win this past Sunday against the University of Rochester. At number two, Malsang faced Rochester’s Omar Zakaria and, following a nail-biting 11-9 win, Malsang won the second game 11-2 to take a commanding lead. The newcomer closed the set with an 11-6 result to pick up the victory. 

    Track and Field: Both men’s and women’s track and field had first place finishes on home turf this weekend. They competed in the Saints Holiday Relays and finished at the top of the team score table in the competition that featured six other schools. First-years Isla Bougard Duncan and Erik Marelli each set personal records as they opened their collegiate careers on a high note–and Marelli won the 60-meter hurdles with a time of 8.98. Sophomore Quinn Sirgany also took first place in the women’s mile run.
