Knoll, Zumwinkle score twice, Frost swamp Torrent 6-2
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) --- Katy Knoll and Grace Zumwinkle scored two goals apiece
and the Minnesota Frost handed the Seattle Torrent their worst loss, 6-2 on
Sunday.
Minnesota, which spoiled the Torrent's inaugural home opener 3-0, became the
first team to score more than four goals against the expansion team.
Taylor Heise had a goal and two assists and Abby Hustler had a goal and an
assist for the Frost (5-1-2-3). Maddie Rooney had 24 saves in picking up her
second win.
Jessie Eldridge and Danielle Serdachny scored for the Torrent (3-1-1-5).
Minnesota threw a season-high 45 shots at Seattle goalie Hannah Murphy.
Knoll opened the scoring with a power play goal late in the first period,
putting a one-timer from the bottom of the left circle over Murphy's shoulder.
Zumwinkle poked in a rebound over her own miss in the opening seconds of the
second period and midway through blew a wrist shot from the right circle over
Murphy.
Eldridge was alone out front for a wrister after intercepting a Heise pass, but
Heise made up for that with a goal early in the third period before Knoll made
it 4-1.

Seattle, which ended a four-game road trip, returns home to play league-leading
Boston on Sunday.
