Maloney (Great River, N.Y./Saint Anthony's) found the back
of the net four times in Stonehill's 19-2 win over the Assumption

Stonehill College Skyhawks (9-2, 7-0 Northeast-10 Conference)
cruised past the Greyhounds, increasing their 14-point halftime
lead with four second-half goals. The win is the program's
75th straight Conference victory and the eighth time this season
the Skyhawks have scored over 15 goals.
