WHAT A NIGHT FOR TAYLOR DAY IN BLUES WIN

Box Score Recording her 100th career point, fifth-year forward Taylor Day scored twice to help lead the No. 10 nationally ranked University of Toronto Varsity Blues women's hockey team over the visiting Laurentian Voyageurs 2-1 on Saturday night (Feb. 11) at Varsity Arena.
 
The win pushes the Blues record to 13-2-7-0 (W-OTW-L-OTL) as they sit in sole possession of third place in the OUA with only two games left in the regular season. The victory also clinches home-ice advantage in the first round of the playoffs. 
 
Starting off with a bang, the veteran Day wasted no time scoring just 1:19 into the contest to earn her 100th career point, becoming just the eighth player in program history to reach the milestone.
 
Day, however, would continue her hot streak by scoring another goal in the second frame off a rebound from the point shot of defender Cristine Chao.
 
Beyond the milestones, Day now ranks tied for third in points (25) and fourth in goals (15) in the province.
 
The Voyageurs would keep the game interesting with Myla McCormick scoring a short handed goal with just over a minute left in the third frame, sparking a comeback attempt that would fall short.
 
U of T goalie Katey Teekasingh posted 18 saves for the back-to-back victories and her seventh win of the season.
 
The Blue and White are back in action next Thursday, February 16 to take on the Ryerson Rams at Varsity Arena. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m. with the game also being streamed live on OUA.tv.
