The sophomore defender had a career week up in Orono, Maine this past weekend for the Bobcats. Boulton tallied five points against the Blackbears of the University of Maine, as the Bobcats split the weekend series, winning Friday night, and losing Saturday afternoon. Friday night was a career night for Boulton, as she recorded her first career hat trick, netting three goals past Maine goaltender Candice Currier (Goffstown, N.H.). Along with her hat trick, Boulton also had an assist on a goal scored by freshman forward Kelly Babstock (Mississauga, Ontario).
Friday night produced Boulton’s largest point total in a game ever, with four points recorded. Her previous high point total for a night came back on February 20, 2010, when she recorded two assists in an 8-1 Bobcats win over Brown University.
