Cardinal In The Spotlight

Amy Madden

Year: Junior

Pos.: Forward

Hometown: E. Grand Rapids, MI

Major: Business

From Coach Mannor: "Amy’s biggest strength is her ability to anticipate the play and utilize her stickhandling ability in both the offensive and defensive zones. She is a strong two-way player who is always an offensive threat, and is solid in the ‘D’ zone.”



Game Notes
The Cardinals and Oles split their regular-season meetings a year ago, with St. Olaf winning 3-1 and SMU posting a 4-2 victory. … Amy Madden (East Grand Rapids, Mich.) scored a pair of goals, but SMU could not hold a two-goal third-period lead and had to settle for a 2-2 tie vs. St. Catherine last Saturday. … St. Olaf got two goals and an assist from Lindsey Boeser as the Oles completed a two-game sweep of Hamline with a 3-1 win on Saturday. … SMU holds a 6-3-1 all-time record vs. St. Olaf, but the Oles are 3-2-1 in the teams' last six meetings. 

Cardinal Notes

Amy Madden
2 goals in
2-2 tie vs.
CSC last Sat.
Saturday's 2-2 tie vs. St. Catherine snapped the Cardinals' season-high five-game winning streak, but extended their unbeaten streak to six. … Three of SMU's six games during their current unbeaten stretch have gone into overtime — the Cardinals are 2-0-1 in those three. … Friday’s five-goal offensive output equalled the Cardinals' team high (SMU also scored five in a 5-1 season-opening win over UW-Eau Claire and in a 5-2 win over Hamline). … The Cardinals’ 44 shots on goal vs. CSC on Friday were the most in a regulation game this season and two shy of the season-high 46 shots they took against Augsburg in a 1-1 overtime tie on Dec. 2. … Melissa Mondo (Vadnais Heights, Minn.) netted her first hat trick of the season and second of her carer in Friday's 5-2 win over St. Catherine. … Laura Mueller (St. Paul, Minn.) and Jill Rhody (St. Paul, Minn.) each had two assists in Friday's win, while Amy Madden (East Grand Rapids, Mich.) netted both goals in Saturday's 2-2 tie. … Mondo — who led the team in goals (8) and points (14) a year ago — already has surpassed those numbers with her team-leading nine goals and 17 points. … Mueller and Rachel Harrison (Madison, Wis,) share the team assist lead (8) with Mondo. … The Cardinals have now played seven overtime games — one short of the school record eight set in 2002-2003 — going 3-1-3.

Ole Notes
The OIes’ sweep of Hamline snapped a four-game losing streak in which St. Olaf was outscored 41-6. … St. Olaf has given up 75 goals in its 11 losses, while scoring just 15 goals during those 11 games. … Susannah Brokl is the Oles’ offensive leader, scoring a team-high 15 goals en route to her team-leading 30 points. … Lindsay Boeser is the team’s leader in assists (18) and is second in points with 25. … Goalie Shannon Herrick has started 20 of the Oles’ 21 games, posting a 4.82 goals-against-avearge and an 845 save percentage. … St. Olaf has been outscored in every period, including 35-17 in the first period. … The Oles are 6-2-0 when scoring first, and 4-9-0 when their opponent scores first.
