The Davenport Report – 7-14-0-0, 6-8-0-0 CCWHA
Although the Panthers ended a streak of four games without scoring a goal, they are still searching for their first win in their last seven. While it suffered two conference losses at the RedHawks last weekend, Davenport came close to even the score three apiece near the end of regulation in game two with a power play opportunity but came up short. Chantal Caraher snapped the Panthers out of their slump with her 17th goal of the season in game one to increase her team-leading 37 points. In game two, Caitlin Harrison and Kerri Rozeboom would help setup leading scorer Lexie Boydston's 18th goal while Darian Adams net her 11th of the year with assistance from Caraher and Melissa Cresse.

The Eagles have been unbeaten in their last seven games, picking up three victories but settling to overtime draws. Robert Morris was on the road last weekend at Michigan, defeating the Wolverines 6-2 in game one but settling to a 2-2 tie in the series finale. Chelsea Kasprick net a hat trick to highlight the Eagles' performance in game one while Ramey Weaver scored the two goals in game two to preserve the unbeaten streak. Kasprick owns a commanding lead in goals scored (26) on the team and has 38 points on the year, one more than Hayley Williams to pace the club.
