Jess Adams '21 and the nationally-ranked women's ice hockey team competed in one of the nation's most competitive regular-season tournaments, the annual Panther-Cardinal Classic, hosted this year by No. 4/4 Middlebury. She finished with a team-high two points in a pair of games against the host Panthers and No. 2/2-ranked Plattsburgh State.
Against the fourth-ranked Panthers on Saturday, Elmira skated to a 1-1 overtime draw. Adams, a sophomore forward from Holliston, Massachusetts, set up EC's goal in the opening period, which gave the Soaring Eagles a 1-0 lead heading into the first intermission. The following afternoon, Adams collected her second assist in as many days on Elmira's lone goal against second-ranked Plattsburgh.
Through the first seven games of the year, Adams has collected five points (1g-4a) and has already tied her total from her rookie season with four assists.
The No. 1/1-ranked Elmira women's ice hockey team will resume play on Friday, December 1, with a road trip to Amherst, Massachusetts, to take on the Amherst Mammoths. The non-conference bout is slated for a 7:00 p.m. puck drop.
