Ellee Hall is tops with three helpers. Turner has seen the majority of action between the pipes and is 2-1-0 with a 1.59 GAA, a .733 save percentage, and one shutout.
After starting the year 1-3-0, Southern Utah (3-3-0) has won two straight to bring its record to .500 following identical 2-1 wins over Dixie State and Utah Valley last weekend. Paige Robins leads the team with three goals and seven points. In goal, Taylor Bolding has seen the brunt of the work and is 1-3-0 with a 2.00 GAA, and a .690 save percentage.
