Playing career[]
NCAA[]
In a February 18, 2012 contest versus Mercyhurst, Dayna Newsom recorded the game-tying goal with 3:09 remaining in the third period.[1] Said goal helped the Colonials rally to a tie against nationally ranked Mercyhurst. [2] She grabbed the puck in the neutral zone and skated into the offensive zone. Newsom proceeded to circle behind the net before flipping a back¬hand into the net. In addition, she logged an assist on the Colonials third goal. She would end the game with her second multi-point game of the season, (eighth in her career, and first in conference play). By scoring the goal, Newsom not only helped the Colonials to a tie, but she played a small part in NCAA history. She prevented Lakers goaltender Hillary Pattenden from winning the 100th game of her NCAA career[3]. Pattenden would have been the first goalie in NCAA history to earn 100 wins, and it was the last game of her career.
