There was a chance for a let down after an emotional win on Wednesday in front of a record crowd at Cheel Arena, but the Knights took care of business at Appleton Arena today with a 3-0 win of St. Lawrence.  

In the opening period, Darcie Lappan would get her 2nd goal in as many games when she opened the scoring at 4:49.  Dominique Petrie and Keira Hurry would get the assists on Lappan's goal.  Clarkson would go on the power play at 10:44, giving Sena Catterall the opportunity at 12:42 to extend the lead to 2-0.  For Sena, it is her 5th goal in 3 games.  

The second period would not see any goals for either team, but Clarkson would outshoot the Saints 23-10 in the period. 

In the third, the Knights would face three penalty kill situations, but would get through all three kills and then with 1:53 remaining and with the extra attacker on, St. Lawrence would take a slashing the stick penalty, allowing the Knights to grind out the rest of the game on the power play and eventually get a empty net goal when Dom Petrie would get her 3rd goal of the series and 2nd game clinching empty net goal. 

Michelle Pasiechnyk would earn her 4th shut out of the year, as she made 12 3rdperiod saves for a total of 30.  Clarkson would maintain their streak of out shooting every team this season, as they out chanced the Saints 40 to 32.

Clarkson also won the special teams' game, they went 2-4 with the power play and held the Saints 0 for 4 with the advantage.

Clarkson will host Brown and Yale next weekend at Cheel.
