Egmondville native Craig off to fast start
in U.S. college hockey season
Jeff ll e u c h e r t
Egmondville native Leah Craig is off
to quite the start with the University
of New Hampshire Wildcats hockey
team.
While the Wildcats have started the
season with five wins, and only one
loss, Craig has excelled personally as
well, in what is only her sophomore
year.
Last week, 19 -year-old Craig was
named Player of the Week, by both
her league, Hockey East, and U.S.
College Hockey, who oversee all of the
U.S. college hockey leagues.
Over a two game span Craig scored
six goals and an assist. Four of the
goals came in one game.
Craig contributes much of her early
success to her two linemates, whom
she says have been setting her up for
many scoring chances.
"When you're put
in an opportunity
to play well, you
succeed," she says.
As of Monday,
Craig was fourth in
the league in
points, first in
goals, game wining
goals, and short
handed goals, and
second in power
play goals.
Craig, a member
of Hockey East's
All -Rookie Team
last season, feels
she is no longer
playing with just
teammates, but
friends.
She says they all
go out to movies,
Leah Craig
hockey games, and
even a haunted
house this past
weekend.
"We're like a little
family," she says.
Craig, who's
studying health
science and psy-
chology at the uni-
versity, does
acknowledge she's
playing with much
more confidence
this season.
She says she has
a better under-
standing of how to
focus before a
game now.
Last season she
would sometimes
be distracted come
game time over school assignments
and other things.
"I'm definitely more comfortable,"
she says, talking about this year. "I
know how to mentally prepare and be
focused on the task at hand."
Expectations are high for the
Wildcats.
Last season they finished first in
their league but lost in the playoffs.
This season Craig says there is no
reason they cannot win the Hockey
East playoffs and advance to the
frozen four national championships,
where they would meet teams from
other U.S. college leagues.
"We're really good this year, it's real-
ly exciting," she says.
The Wildcats season has just begun,
with still over 50 games remaining.
As Craig puts it, all you can do is
"Play each game as it comes, and
win," she jokes.
