The victory was the fourth straight for the Nor'easters (10-3), who defeated Southern Maine (3-9) for the eighth consecutive time. UNE has now posted double-digits in victories in six of the last eight seasons.
Kayla Hamel got UNE on the board in the 19th minute, taking a drop pass from Jackie Dickerson and
driving a low shot inside the near post.
The Nor'easters would tally again in the 34th minute when Edie Pallozzi took the ball out of the air and sent a shot inside the near post. Devon Wolfenden assisted on the play. UNE took that 2-0 cushion into intermission and led 7-3 in shots.
The second frame was all UNE. Hamel notched her second goal just 3:44 into the half. That tally was followed by markers from Taylor Littlefield, Wolfenden, Taylor Usko and Brionne Turcotte over a span of less than 16 minutes. The Nor'easters would pepper the Huskies the entire half, taking 21 shots after intermission while holding USM without a shot.
Brielle Robinson played the initial 69:05 in goal for the Nor'easters to register her 10th win. Emily Ashman and Molly Early went the rest of the way for UNE.
Marissa Temple had a busy afternoon in goal for the Huskies, making 12 stops.
The Nor'easters travel to Boston on Saturday for an important Commonwealth Coast Conference match at Wentworth Institute of Technology. Kick-off is slated for 12:30 p.m.
