SYRACUSE, N.Y. – Abby Moloughney's two-goal performance in Syracuse ice hockey's regular season finale against Robert Morris Saturday earned the sophomore her second College Hockey America (CHA) Player of the Week honor this season. Moloughney's goals helped the Orange (13-19-2, 11-7-2 CHA) split the weekend against RMU, 'Cuse going on to win 4-2.
Moloughney put 'Cuse up 2-1 in the second period with a slapshot from the left circle. The Colonials tied the game at 2-2 six minutes into the third period, but they didn't celebrate for long. Moloughney scored a power-play goal midway through the final frame to give her team the 3-2 edge before Lauren Bellefontaine capped the day with a goal of her own. Moloughney (10-18-28) leads Syracuse in both points and goals, and she's two assists behind team leader Lindsay Eastwood.
