ITHACA, N.Y. - The Brown women's hockey team tied Cornell, 2-2, on Saturday at Lynah Rink in an ECAC contest. Sophomore Cynthia Kyin (Skokie, Ill.) scored the game-tying goal 3:56 into the third period and the Brown defense held Cornell at bay to force overtime. Both teams skated to a scoreless overtime to keep the score, 2-2. The tie for Brown snaps Cornell's streak of 17 straight wins over the Bears. It was Brown's first tie since Feb. 13 of 2015 when Brown did so against Union (3-3).
Cornell scored the opening goal at 5:47 with a tally form Lenka Serdar. The Big Red carried that lead into the intermission and outshot the Bears 12-3 in the stanza.
Freshman Abby Niewchas (Cochrane, Alberta) scored her first-career goal at 13:02 of the second to knot the game at 1-1. Juniors Maddie Woo (Plymouth, Minn) and Erin Conway (Jackson, Mich.) teamed up for the assists. Cornell was quick to respond and regained a lead at 14:51 with a power-play goal from Hanna Bunton.
Kyin scored the game-tying goal, and her first-career goal, 3:56 into the third to tie the game at two. The sophomore received the feed from classmate Sam Donovan (New Brighton, Minn.).
The overtime was a defensive battle as the team's got off a combined three shots, two for Cornell and one for Brown.
Junior Monica Elvin (Oakland, Calif.) tied her season-high and recorded 46 stops in the game to earn a point for the Bears. Paula Voorheis made 15 saves for Cornell.
Cornell went 1-for-5 on the power play while Brown went 0-for-4. The Big Red finished the game with a 48-17 shot advantage.
The Bears will next compete in their first non-conference game since Nov. 28, when they travel to play at Merrimack on Tuesday, Jan. 19 for a 6:00 p.m. game.
