HOMESTAND BEGINS
RPI opens a four-game homestand this weekend, when it welcomes UConn to the Houston Field House for a non-league series, beginning on Friday at 6pm.

ALL SQUARE IN PITTSBURGH
The Engineers earned a 1-1 tie with Robert Morris in the series finale last Saturday. Freshman Sabrina Repaci netted RPI's lone tally in the first period and sophomore goaltender Lovisa Selander made a season-high 37 saves, including 20 in the second period alone.

POWER PLAY GOALS
Rensselaer has power play goals in four of its first six games this season and is converting at an 11.8% clip (4 for 34).

ON THE DRAW
Junior Shayna Tomlinson has won 68.8% (11 of 16) of her face-offs, which is good for 11th in the country and third best in ECAC Hockey. As a team, RPI has a 53.5% winning percentage on draws.

UP NEXT
Rensselaer and UConn are back in action on Saturday for the series finale (3pm). The Engineers are then idle until October 28 and 29, when they host Cornell and sixth-ranked Colgate to open their ECAC Hockey schedule.
