Sophomore Gina Monaco (Niagara Falls/Niagara Falls) became Buffalo State's all-time leading goal scorer as the Bengals earned a 7-2 victory today at Potsdam.

The Bengals opened the scoring at 11:22 when Gina Monaco (Niagara Falls/Niagara Falls) scored the first of four goals on the day. After Potsdam knotted the score at 1-1, Buffalo State reclaimed the lead with a pair of goals just over two minutes apart late in the first half by Christina Semertzides (Wappinger Falls/Roy C. Ketchum) and Claire Movalli (Lancaster/Lancaster).

Potsdam scored first in the second frame to close the deficit to 3-2, but the Bengals poured it on from there with goals by Semertzides, Lucy Bauda (W. Seneca/Orchard Park) and two more off the foot of Monaco.

Monaco now has 35 career goals in just her second season at Buffalo State, surpassing the previous record of 34 by Valerie Krell (1983-87) and Lori Galipeau (1994-97).

Buffalo State leveled its record at 6-6-1 overall and improved to 3-4 in SUNYAC play
