Freshman Rebecca Vint, the reigning CHA Rookie of the Month, broke RMU’s all-time record for longest point streak Tuesday by reaching the 11-game mark. The Colonials rank among the top seven nationally in both scoring offense and scoring defense. Series vs. Nutmeg State Foes RMU’s meeting with Yale will be the first ever between the clubs and will also mark the Colonials’ first-ever regular-season neutral-site game in program history … RMU split a pair of meetings in the Freitas Ice Forum with UConn this past January. The Delaney sisters have posted strong numbers against the Huskies in their careers as both have four points in four games played against UConn. Brianna has three goals and an assist while Cobina has the exact opposite distribution ... All five of RMU’s meetings with Quinnipiac came in the Colonials’ first three years of existence, so no current Colonial has faced the Bobcats before. While Robert Morris was unable to come up with a victory in that quintet of meetings, it was only outscored by seven goals combined in those five games with one of the meetings necessitating overtime. Scouting Nutmeg State Foes Yale has played four games against nationally-ranked teams thus far among its 12 contests. It has also played three contests against fellow CHA teams, coming up short to Niagara once and falling to Mercyhurst twice this past weekend. The Bulldogs won their Nutmeg Classic opener a season ago when they led from wire to wire in knocking off UConn, 5-2 … UConn has played five games against nationally-ranked teams in 2011-12. The Huskies dropped a two-game set at Syracuse with a pair of setbacks at the end of October … Quinnipiac has already taken down two top-10 teams and has been playing well lately, sporting a 6-2-1 mark in its past nine games. The Bobcats upset CHA power Mercyhurst, 1-0, on the road in October and are coming off a huge 2-1 overtime win against No. 4 Boston College in which they notched the tying score with just 10 seconds left in regulation. Quinnipiac is the least penalized team in the country, averaging just 7.1 penalty minutes per game. 2011-12 WOMEN’S ICE HOCKEY SCHEDULE Date Opponent Time SEPT. 23 (Fri.) PENN STATE (Exh.)

For further details on Colontino’s background and history, please go to page 9. While Colontino leads the staff, he also brought on two additional newcomers to help coach the Colonials this past offseason. He hired Allison Rutledge as an assistant coach and added former Colonial Brianne McLaughlin as a volunteer assistant coach. Rutledge, who previously served as an assistant coach at Wayne State since 2007, has earned national recognition and demonstrated success as bothaDivisionIplayerandcoachandalsoboastseightyearsofexperienceinCHAcompetition.InherfirstseasonatWayneState,RutledgeandherfellowWarriorcoacheswerenamedtheNationalCoachingStaffoftheYearbytheAmericanHockeyCoachesAssociation(AHCA)afterfinishingtheseasonwiththefirstnationalrankinginprogramhistoryandsecuringaschool-record22wins.RutledgehelpedWayneStatetoashareofitsfirstCHA regular-season championship along with breaking the school records for longest winning streak (nine games) and longest unbeaten streak (11 games). Rutledge had a strong pedigree for working with Wayne State’s goalies as she was an All-American goaltender during her playing days at Niagara. She started 110 games in her collegiate career and ranks third all-time in NCAA history with 3,405 saves. McLaughlin had a storied collegiate career for Robert Morris before competing for her country in both Olympic and World Championship events.

Vint Named CHA Rookie of the Month Forward Rebecca Vint continued to earn increasingly impressive honors as the freshman was named the CHA Rookie of the Month for October. Vint became the second active Colonial, joining sophomore Thea Imbrogno, to have won a CHA monthly award. She secured the honor for leading the league in points while helping the Colonials to a 6-1-1 record, the best eight-game start in school history. Vint burst onto the scene in her open-ing month of collegiate competition by scoring at record rates to lead Robert Morris to a swift start.

Record-Breaking Machine Assistant captain Brianna Delaney entered her senior season within striking distance of the major remaining offensive career records that she did not already hold. Delaney began to tear up both single-season and career RMU records in her junior campaign. She reset Robert Morris’ career assist record Jan. 9, 2011 when she tallied a helper on a third-period goal at UConn for her sister, Cobina. Brianna Delaney also broke RMU’s single-season assist mark by recordingher19thassistoftheseasonintheCHASemifinalsagainstNo.3Mercyhurst.Sheenteredherseniorseasonneedingjustfivepointstomoveatopthe Colonials’ all-time points list and quickly worked to achieve that feat.

Special ‘Special Teams’ Robert Morris continued a recent trend Tuesday at Colgate by dominating on both sides of the special teams department. The Colonials scored at least four power-play goals for the third-consecutive game and are 13-for-24 overall during this stretch--this effort has moved Robert Morris among the top four schools nationally in power-play conversion percenage ahead of both No. 1 Wisconsin and No. 2 Minnesota. RMU also held the Raiders to a 1-for-10 mark when they had a man-advantage as Robert Morris has now killed off 20 of its opponents’ last 21 power plays.

Impressive Imbrogno Is Reigning Rookie of the Year Afterarecord-settingfreshmancampaign,TheaImbrognobecamethefirststudent-athleteinprogramhistorytowinamajorpostseasonleagueawardas the conference named Imbrogno the CHA Rookie of the Year at its annual banquet last March. The rookie recognition was far from the only honor Imbrogno received as she was also the only freshman to earn 2011 all-conference honors as she was selected to the All-CHA Second Team. She became just the second freshman in the program’s six-year history to be chosen to an all-league team, joining former Colonial standout and United States Olympian Brianne McLaughlin. Imbrogno’s selection marks the seventh overall All-CHA award (First or Second Team) for a Colonial as the young RMU program has produced at least one all-conference honoree in every season of its existence. The rookie of the year honor put an ultimate cap on Imbrogno’s record-setting season. She earned a program-record eight in-season awards, topping McLaughlin’s former single-season mark. Imbrogno was especially dominating during the season’s crucial closing stretch when she led RMU to a program-record unbeaten streak and won three of the last four CHA Rookie of the Week awards along with earning the CHA Rookie of the Month for February.

Imbrogno’s season was made even more impressive by her ability to produce at the biggest moments and in the most important games. She posted 11 points in RMU’s 11 games against nationally-ranked opponents and also raised her play during CHA competition. She elevated her performance against league foes as she posted team-leading marks of 10 goals, 10 assists, 20 points and 72 shots in conference play.

Strong Start RMU had started strong on its season-opening weekend in its previous three seasons, beat-ing nationally-ranked teams each time, but the Colonials extended that trend this season to much more than the opening two games. Robert Morris is off to an 9-1-1 start, the best 11-game start in program history. The month of October also marked just the second time in school his-tory that RMU posted at least six wins in a single calendar month. Robert Morris is one of just seven schools nationwide to average more than four goals per game this season. RMU is just one of 10 schools across the country to allow fewer than two goals per game and also ranks among the top six nationally in scoring margin.

Clean Sweep After RMU broke its record for the longest unbeaten streak in program history, three Colonials combined to sweep the trio of weekly awards given out by CHA Nov. 14. Kylie St. Louis and Kelsey Thomas were designated as CHA Co-Players of the Week for their outstand-ing offensive efforts while freshman goaltender Courtney Vinet earned both CHA Goaltender oftheWeekandCHARookieoftheWeekhonors.ItmarkedthefirsttimesinceOctober2008 that RMU received recognition for both the league’s top offensive and top defensive performance. St. Louis had a huge offensive week from her spot in the Colonial defense with three goals and two assists. The blue-liner had yet to record a multi-point game in her career prior to that week, but she actually managed to accomplish the feat twice in fewer than 24 hours.Thomas,whogarneredherfirst-careerCHAawardwiththeannouncement,hadafantastic offensive weekend, thanks in large part to a career performance Nov. 12 in which she shattered her previous career high for points in a game.

Academic Athletes The Robert Morris women’s hockey team earned a conference-best 16 selections on the CHA All-Academic Team that was announced this summer. RMU freshman Anneline Lauziere merited further distinction as she was one of just six student-athletes in the CHA to be named to the league’s Academic All-Star Team, a squad that honors the student-athletes that have achieved the highest grade-point averages for their respective positions. Lauziere, a biology major, earned a dazzling 3.97 GPA for the season, including claiming a perfect 4.0 average duringthefirstsemesterofhercollegiatecareer.ThedefensemanwaspreviouslynamedasRMU’sMostImprovedPlayeraftershegatheredfivepoints,includingherfirst-careergoal,duringthefinal13gamesoftheregularseason.ToqualifyfortheCHAAll-AcademicTeam,astudent-athlete must post a 3.0 GPA or higher in all of the academic periods during which her team was actively competing. While 3.0 represents the minimum standard to qualify, all 16 of Robert Morris’ selections actually achieved a GPA of at least 3.2 during the past academic year. Freshman forward Thea Imbrogno was one of just six student-athletes across the CHA to claim both All-Conference and All-Academic Team honors.

Brianna, who tied for the team lead with 30 points, assisted on seven of Cobina’s goals.

Robert Morris vs. YaleStatistical Comparisons

No Zeroes Despite playing challenging schedules in each of the past two years, Robert Morris is in the midst of an impressive run nationally. The Colonials have not been shutout in their past 54 games, a program best, despite playing 13 of those contests against nationally-ranked foes--including six against opponents which were ranked No. 1 nationally. No other CHA team has an active streak longer than 12 games enter-ing the weekend. In fact, RMU’s 54-game stretch is currently the fourth longest in the nation, and two of the other three teams it trails are two of the top three programs in the national rankings.

Banner Achievement The Robert Morris University Athletic Department held a special ceremony Sep. 24 to honor former Colonial women’s hockey goaltender and United States Olympian Brianne McLaughlin at the RMU Island Sports Center. The ceremony included remarks from Robert Morris President Dr. Gregory Dell’Omo, Rob-ert Morris Athletic Director Dr. Craig Coleman and Robert Morris Associate Athletic Director Marty Galosi that highlighted and paid tribute to McLaughlin’s extensive list of accomplishments, both academic and athletic, before culminating with the unfurling of a 14’ by 8’ banner that will permanently hang in the Colonials’ home facility. “The Olympics were not Brianne’s only achievement,” Dell’Omo said. “Brianne set the NCAA’s record for saves while studying nursing at Robert Morris, one of our most demanding programs for the time it requires in clinical training. After the Olympics, she returned to Robert Morris to complete her degree. In short, Brianne was a scholar-athlete in the truest sense of the word, and a rolemodelforstudents,facultyandstaff--someonewhoexemplifiedourcorevaluesandourmissionto change lives.” McLaughlin, who joined the RMU women’s hockey staff as a volunteer assistant coach in July 2011, had a storied collegiate career for Robert Morris before competing for her country in both Olympic and World Championship events. “On behalf of the RMU Department of Athletics, we congratu-late Brianne on all of her achievements and hope that with this visual tribute, young girls will aspire to takeafterherontheiceandintheclassroom,”Colemansaid.“Thisbannerisafittingandpermanentreminder as to how strongly we at Robert Morris feel about all that she has contributed to our women’s hockey program, our athletic department and our university.” The distinct banner was designed by Jeff Symonds, a former member of the Robert Morris sports information staff.Meet the Captains

Hockey Families Captain Paige Pietrangelo’s father, Frank Pietrangelo, was as a goalie for the Pittsburgh Penguins from 1987-1992. He is remembered in Pittsburgh for his clutch performance in the 1991 Stanley Cup Playoffs. InthesixthgameofthefirstroundagainsttheNewJerseyDevilswiththePenguinsfacingelimination,Pietrangelo faced a one-on-one with future Hall-of-Famer Peter Stastny. Pietrangelo made a remarkable glove save, which is known to this day in Penguin hockey history as “The Save”. The Penguins ended up winning Game Six, 4-3, to force a seventh game in which Pietrangelo earned a shutout win. The Penguins wentontowintheStanleyCupthatseasonwithPietrangeloearningthewininGameFiveofthefinals. One other Colonial has a brother that is currently playing the NHL.

Paul ColontinoHead CoachFirst SeasonMercyhurst ‘00

Robert Morris University Director of Athletics Craig Coleman, M.D., announced the hiring of Paul Colontino as head women’s ice hockey coach in June 2011. Colontino, who had served as associate head coach at Mercyhurst since 2006, helpedguideteamstotheNCAATournamentineachofthepastfiveyears,includingearning two Frozen Four berths, and has over a decade of women’s hockey coaching experience at the Division I level. InColontino’sfiveseasonswithMercyhurst,theLakershavepostedanoverallrecord of 148-25-9 (.838), advanced to the national championship game once, made

After a one-goal loss in the NCAA Tournament to the eventual national champions ended the Lakers’ 2007-08 season, the 2008-09 squad reached new heights. Entering the NCAA Tournament on a 15-game winningstreak,Mercyhurstadvancedtoitsfirst-everFrozenFourwithavictoryoverSt.LawrenceandproceededtotopMinnesotainathrillingsemifinalcontesttomoveintothenationalchampionshipgameagainstWisconsin.The Lakers were ranked No. 1 for 23 weeks the following season, went 30-3-3 and advanced to the Frozen Four for the second straight season before succumbing in overtime to Cornell. WhileColontinohadahandinleadingandassistinginallaspectsoftheLakers’program,hespecificallymanagedthedefensive corps and worked with the penalty killing units, areas that have thrived recently for Mercyhurst. Under Colontino,theLakersrankedamongthetop10nationallyinscoringdefenseineachofhisfiveseasonswhileallowingtwo goals per game or fewer on four of those occasions. Mercyhurst has also ranked among the top four programs nationally in killing off opponents’ power plays in each of the last two seasons. Colontino also served as the recruiting coordinator for the Lakers and was able to attract numerous top-tier talents to Mercyhurst. He helped recruit the 2009-10 Patty Kazmaier Award winner, Vicki Bendus, one of four Kazmaier Award finalistsMercyhursthasearnedunderColontino.TheLakershavereceived28All-CHAselections,including17FirstTeam honors, since Colontino rejoined the staff, and he has helped his Laker defensemen earn eight All-CHA First Team awardsinthepastfiveyearsalonewithMercyhurst’sCasseaScholsgrabbingCHADefensemanoftheYearhonorsfor2010-11. Colontino had numerous other responsibilities away from the ice for the Lakers including scheduling, monitoring academic affairs of student-athletes, preparing scouting reports of opponents, developing and conducting practices and organizing program fundraising events. Prior to his most recent stretch at Mercyhurst, Colontino was an assistant coach with the women’s team at the University of North Dakota for four years. He helped launch the women’s program with the Fighting Sioux in 2002 and waspartofthecoachingstaffthefollowingseasonwhenNorthDakotawon11ofitsfinal12gamestopostawinningrecord in just its second season of existence. Some of Colontino’s responsibilities with North Dakota included training the Fighting Sioux defensive units, aiding with video analysis and recruiting prospective student-athletes along with organizing the staff’s recruiting efforts. He also developed, scheduled and organized an annual international hockey tournament at North Dakota. During his time on staff, the Fighting Sioux transitioned into the Western Collegiate Hockey Association (WCHA) in their third season as a program and upset fourth-ranked Minnesota Duluth on the road in February 2006, the highest-ranked opponent the Sioux had defeated in program history to that point. Colontino, who has also been an instructor at numerous hockey camps and clinics throughout the country, began his coaching career as an assistant with Mercyhurst in 2000. He planned and instructed the strength and conditioning efforts for the program, coordinated individual video sessions with student-athletes, helped oversee the program’s travelandequipmentbudgetsandorganizedteamcommunityserviceefforts.Inthesecondseasonofhisfirststintwith Mercyhurst, the Lakers won a then school-record 24 games, including posting a perfect 8-0-0 mark in conference play. Before moving to the coaching side, Colontino played for four years at Mercyhurst and earned multiple notable awards in the process. While serving as a team captain in his senior season, he was named both Mercyhurst Student-Athlete of the Year and Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) Co-Defensive Player of the Year while leading the Lakers to a then school-record tying 23 wins. Colontino, who was also an All-MAAC First Team selection, helped Mercyhurst to a winning record in each of his seasons on the ice with the Lakers.
