CHS BOX SCOREBoston, MA – Tess Adams (Calgary, AB) scored for the third consecutive game but the SUNY Canton women's hockey team fell at the hands of Endicott College, 4-1, in the consolation game of the Codfish Bowl on Tuesday.
Dynnea Bezona opened the scoring on the power play at 14:19 of the first on her fourth tally of the season to give the Gulls (7-3-2) the early lead. Sophomore
Rebecca DiNardo (Ottawa, ON) made nine first period saves to keep the Roos (4-9-1) within one after 20 minutes of play.
Endicott netted goals 2:48 apart in the middle period as Jordyn Cholish scored her first of the season and Holly Erbe beat the opposing goaltender for the third time. DiNardo's 14 second period saves kept the Roos in striking distance heading into the third.
Adams scored her team-leading 12th of the season at 7:40 of the third to get the Roos within two. The power play goal was her sixth with the skater advantage this season as
Anna Lagzdina (Ozolnieki, Latvia) and

SUNY Canton pulled the goaltender with 1:23 remaining but just 13 seconds later the Gulls slotted an empty-net goal to seal the win. The Roos held 15-6 advantage in shots over the final 20 minutes of action. Adams and Niemiec paced SUNY Canton with seven shots on goal apiece.
