ST. PAUL, Minn. — Andrea Kemp (Hastings, Minn.) scored two goals and assisted on another, while Missy Westergren (Lonsdale, Minn.) chipped in three assists and Nitara Frost (North Mankato, Minn.) recorded the shutout as the Saint Mary's University women's hockey team extended its winning streak to eight straight with a 7-0 victory over Hamline Sunday afternoon.

The Cardinals, who improved to a league-leading 11-2-0, scored three times in the first period and twice in both the second and the third en route to the sweep of the Pipers. Mo Hayes (Cottage Grove, Minn.) opened the scoring for SMU at the 11:13 mark of the first period, with Monica Deringer (Brooklyn Park, Minn.) and Kemp also scoring in the game's opening 20 minutes.
