GAME RECAP

Albany scored goals at 27:02, 20:46 and 18:46 to build a 3-0 lead.
Devan Miller (Bristol, R.I.) finished a feed from Laura McHoul (Westwood, Mass.) 40 seconds later to reduce the deficit to two goals.
UNH had two chances to pull closer, but UAlbany goalkeeper Courtney Henderson denied Nicole Grote (Ellicott City, Md.) at 15:11 and again at 14:25 to keep the 'Cats at bay.
The Great Danes quickly extended the advantage to 5-1 on goals by Rachel Bowles and Dakotah Savitcheff (5g) 36 seconds apart – at 13:13 and 12:37, respectively.
Those consecutive goals ignited a 6-0 run to end the half that sent the visitors to the locker room with a 9-1 lead. Albany has had the first-half edge in shots (20-6), ground balls (7-1) and turnovers (1-8).
The Great Danes netted the first two goals of the second half to increase the margin to double digits, 11-1, at 23:10. Albany utilized a perimeter passing offense to maintain possession most of the remainder of regulation to preserve its lead.
UNH's Marissa Gurello (Manorville, N.Y.) and Carly Wooters (White Plains, N.Y.) scored unassisted goals at 12:11 and 10:43 to close the gap to 11-3.

UNH NOTEBOOK

New Hampshire still controls its destiny in search of a berth in the America East Championship tournament. A win in next Saturday's regular-season finale at UBMC would secure the No. 3 seed for the Wildcats. A loss by Vermont to Binghamton would put UNH into the tourney.
The three goals marked the lowest output for the season.

'CAT NIPS

UNH's three seniors – Grote, McHoul and Hannah Wohltmann (Towson, Md.) were honored in a postgame ceremony.
McHoul extended her point streak to 22 games with her first-half assist. That tally increased her career totals to 78 goals and 131 assists for 209 points.
Sophomore attacker Krissy Schafer (Longmeadow, Mass.) saw her 12-game goal streak end. She was held scoreless on two shots.
Wooters scored her team-leading 24^th goal of the season.
