Garnering the Giant Eagle RMU Female Student-Athlete of the Week accolade for Oct. 14, 2015, is freshman Sarah Quaranta of the ice hockey team. A forward who hails from Niagara Falls, Ontario, Quaranta registered six points in a sweep of Merrimack last weekend at the RMU Island Sports Center in the first two home games of the 2015-16 campaign for Robert Morris. In a 6-1 victory in the first game of the two-game set Friday, Oct. 9, Quaranta dished out three assists. The next afternoon, Quaranta scored her first collegiate goal and added two more helpers in a 4-2 victory. For her efforts, Quaranta was selected as the College Hockey America (CHA) Rookie of the Week (10/12). Through the first six games of the season, Quaranta has racked up a team-high seven assists while ranking second for RMU in points with eight.
