Brown scored the eventual game-winner only two minutes into the first period, as senior forward Melissa Rennison beat Princeton netminder Sarah Ahlquist unassisted.
The Bears have only played five conference games thus far, four less than first-place Dartmouth, so Brown should move up in the standings in the next few weeks.
Providence 9, Vermont 0 (Game 1) Providence 6, Vermont 0 (Game 2)
Vermont (2-2-0, 2-0-0 ECAC Division III) was no match for the Friars, who had several players with multi-goal performances.
Freshman Darlene Stephenson led the way, tallying two goals and two assists as part of the 51-shot Providence barrage.
The Friars exploded for five goals in the second period, three of which came in the same minute. Junior forward Kim Mathias put a pair in the net in just 15 seconds, as Providence skated away with the victory.
Providence came out the next afternoon and shutout out the Catamounts again, registering its fourth win in a row.
Another freshman led the way for the Friars, as forward Sarah Youlen had one goal and one assist, including the game-winning score in the first. The Catamounts allowed five goals in one period for the second day in a row, as Providence exploded for multiple scores in the third.
