==============================

MONTREAL – Forward Ann-Sophie Bettez, a sophomore from Sept-Iles, Que., exploded for five points, including a pair of goals, as No.1-ranked Ã山ǿ¼é dumped Dalhousie 10-3 in women’s hockey non-conference action at McConnell Arena, Saturday.

Freshman Marie-Andree Leclerc-Auger of Sherbrooke, Que., and Alyssa Cecere, a junior from Brossard, Que., also netted two goals apiece as the Martlets extended their win streak to 32 games against Canadian university opponents.

Bettez, who earned CIS rookie-of-the-year honours last season, tallied a power play goal and a shorthanded marker and reached the 100-point plateau in a Ã山ǿ¼é jersey. She has posted an impressive 14-21-35 record in 19 contests this season and owns a 43-61-104 record in 61 career games for the Martlets.

Other Ã山ǿ¼é marksmen included Vanessa Davidson, a senior from Kirkland, Que., plus Montrealer Julie Casavecchia, Alessandra Lind-Kenny of Calgary and Amy Soberano of Toronto.

Davidson, who scored her 100th career goal in Friday’s 5-1 win over St.FX, has a lifetime record of 102-94-196 in 144 games for Ã山ǿ¼é.
Charline Labonté of Boisbriand, Que., made eight saves for the victory as Ã山ǿ¼é outshot Dalhousie 58-11, including a lopsided 23-1 margin in the middle stanza.


The Martlets led 2-0 after one period, 5-0 after two and were comfortably ahead 7-0 when Kim Carcary of Newmarket, Ont., scored her first of two powerplay markers for the Tigers at 6:53 of the final period to ruin Labonté’s bid for a shutout.

Freshman goaltender Ashley Boutilier started for Dalhousie and took the loss, turning aside 35 of 43 shots before being replaced with 15:53 remaining by junior Emelie Edefors, who was beaten twice on 15 shots.

Teammate Jocelyn LeBlanc netted the other goal for the Tigers, who dropped to 9-8-0 overall. Dalhousie wraps up their three-game Quebec tour at Concordia, Sunday (11:45 a.m.).

Ã山ǿ¼é, which improved to 17-2-0 overall, will close out the first semester on Nov. 29 when they resume league play against Ottawa at McConnell Arena.
