Fifteen seconds later, Corriero completed her hat trick in the game’s most impressive effort. Davis deflected junior defenseman Pamela Van Reesema’s shot to the left of the goal. Corriero grabbed the rebound and seeing Davis grossly overplaying the right side, whisked around the net for a beautiful wrap-around goal.

Corriero’s vision and confidence with the puck drew a lofty comparsion from her coach.

“She’s Phil Esposito,” Stone said. “When’s she got the puck near the net, she’s gonna put it in the goal.”

Corriero, for her part, would not take much credit for her overwhelming performance so far this season.

“When you’re training five days a week, lifting, practicing the way Coach makes you practice, you have no choice but to improve,” Corriero said. “If you don’t, you’re doing something wrong.”

The Thornhill, Ont. native, who just turned 18 this semester, is the ECAC’s leading scorer. She and Dartmouth junior Carly Haggard are tied with 19 points a piece a top the ECAC Northern division.

Overall, the team looked sharp heading into this weekend’s matchup with Northeastern and Niagara.

“Northeastern and Niagara will be more physical,” Stone said. “They’re tougher... but we’re buzzing.”
