RPI sophomore forward Gwen Barnes led the Engineers with four points as a starter in all three games last week, scoring a goal and assisting on two more. She netted the team's lone tally in a 2-1 overtime loss to UMass Boston on Wednesday, before setting up the game-tying goal in RPI's 1-1 draw with Plattsburgh State on Saturday. The winger then dished out the helper on the Engineers' game-winning tally, in a 2-0 victory over New Paltz on Sunday. For the week, she had seven shots (4 on goal), while averaging 73.7 minutes in her first three collegiate matches.
