The Concordia Stingers women’s hockey team continued its dominant run last week, sweeping rival McGill and extending its unbeaten streak to 16 games.
On Thursday night at McConnell Arena, the Stingers delivered a statement performance with a commanding 9–0 win over the Martlets. Captain Jessymaude Drapeau led the charge with a hat trick and added four assists for a seven-point night. Émilie Lussier scored twice, while Angélie Jobin, Rosalie Parent and Émilie Lavoie each chipped in a goal. In net, Jordyn Verbeek turned aside all 20 shots she faced to record her third consecutive shutout.
The two teams met again on Sunday at Ed Meagher Arena, where Concordia completed the sweep with a 5–1 victory. Noémie Gaudreault paced the offence with two goals, Juliette Leroux added one, and Émilie Lussier continued her strong weekend with a goal and two assists, finishing the weekend with seven points.
With the pair of wins, the Stingers have locked up first place in the RSEQ standings and will host throughout the conference playoffs. Concordia is also ranked No. 2 in U SPORTS, trailing only UBC. The Stingers return to action Friday on the road at Bishop’s before hosting the Gaiters on Sunday at 2 p.m.
