W. Hockey Begins Home Stretch as No. 1

As good as Brewer is, she needs her teammates to put the puck in the net more on offense. Brown's best skater is junior defenseman Tara Mounsey (11 g, 5 a), but she has not been able to score much from the blueline. Senior forwards Jill Graat (7 g, 7 a) and Tamra Jones (6 g, 6 a) have to generate more goals for the Bears to have a shot at the title.

If Brown sweeps a two-game series at seventh-place Niagara (14-6-1, 7-6-1 ECAC) this weekend, the Bears will move into first place in the conference. After that things will get much tougher as six of Brown's eight opponents in February are nationally ranked.
