Vint Tabbed as CHA Player of the Month

Moon Township, Pa. - For the second time this season, sophomore forward Rebecca Vint (Caledon, Ontario / Brampton Jr. Thunder) of the Robert Morris University women's hockey team earns a College Hockey America Award as she was named CHA Player of the Month as announced in a league release.

The monthly award marks the third in Vint's career, as she earned two Rookie of the Month honors last season.  Vint remains the second active Colonial, joining junior assistant captain Thea Imbrogno (Ebticoke, Ontario / Mississauga Jr. Cheifs) to have earned a CHA monthly award.  The Player of the Month honor is the first of her career.

Vint earns the award after leading RMU to a 6-1-1 record throughout the month of November.  Vint has scored eight goals and dished out four assists in the Colonials' four series away from home.  Vint's eight goals came on 37 shots to tally a .216 shooting percentage.

Throughout the month, Vint has registered single-game season highs for goals and assists.  On November 10, at Penn State the forward tied a program record for goals in a single-game with five.  Two times in the previous month, against No. 10 Northeastern and against College Hockey America member Syracuse, Vint registered a season-high two assists.  In the eight-game stretch, the forward has won 53 percent of her faceoffs.

Vint has also scored four game-winning goals throughout November while also tallying the first hat trick of her young career.  In the Colonials eight games, Vint notched three multi-point games.  Her multi-point performances came in contests against league opponents Penn State and Syracuse.   In RMU's four league contests in November, Vint has tallied 10 ten points, seven goals and three assists.   Vint has finished the month at an impressive +10. 

Vint currently ranks in the top-25 nationally in three statistical categories. The sophomore ranks 25th in points per game with 1.33 and is tied 14th with 0.75 goals per game.  Her most notable ranking comes from her four game-winning goals which places her second nationally.

Vint and the Colonials return home this weekend as they welcome CHA foe Mercyhurst for a two game series on Dec. 7-8.  Faceoff is set for 7:05 p.m. on Friday and 3:05 Saturday at the RMU Island Sports Center.
