Women’s Hockey drops 2-1 to St. Thomas

ROCHESTER, N.Y. - RIT freshman forward Kylie Aquaro's tying goal wasn't enough as St. Thomas got the lone goal of the third period to take the contest, 2-1, Saturday.
 
HOW IT HAPPENED

• St. Thomas converted a power-play tally 15:14 into the first period after a nice three-way passing play.
• Aquaro tied the contest 12:49 into the second after taking the puck from her own end down the left wall and eventually tucking the puck inside the right post after circling the back of the net.
• St. Thomas got the game winner off a snap shot from the right circle that found the top of the net.
