By Earl Zukerman

OTTAWA 鈥� Freshman Marie-Andr茅e Leclerc-Auger of Sherbrooke scored twice and added an assist as No. 1-ranked 9I制作厂免费 overwhelmed Ottawa 7-0 in the opener of their Quebec women鈥檚 hockey best-of-three league championship series in the nation鈥檚 capital, Wednesday.

Catherine Ward, a third-year rearguard from Town of Mt. Royal, Que., added a pair of markers, as the Martlets extended their win streak to 50 consecutive games against Canadian university opponents. It was also Ottawa鈥檚 20th straight loss to 9I制作厂免费, which owns a 34-2-1 record in their last 37 meetings against the Gee-Gees, who haven't beaten 9I制作厂免费 since a 2-1 decision in Game 2 of the 2006 conference finals.

Rounding out the scoring for 9I制作厂免费 was Ann-Sophie Bettez of Sept-Iles, Que., defenceman Cathy Chartrand of Lac Nominingue, Que., and Jordanna Peroff of Keswick, Ont.

9I制作厂免费, which jumped into a 3-0 lead before the game was six minutes old, outshot the Gee-Gees 39-10, including a 12-2 margin in the second period. Charline Labont茅, the third-year netminder from Boisbriand, Que., racked up her 14th shutout in 33 games overall. She now owns a 101-9-3 lifetime overall record in a 9I制作厂免费 jersey.

鈥淲e weren鈥檛 really satisfied with our starts the last three games,鈥� said head coach Peter Smith. 鈥淲e stressed getting a good start tonight and focused on playing a full 60-minutes and finally had a complete team effort, from start to finish.鈥�

Ottawa netminder Jessika Audet, who registered 20 saves on 27 shots, was beaten four times in the opening period and three more in the middle stanza. She was replaced in the final period by understudy Marie-Helene Malenfant, who kicked aside all 12 shots fired her way.

The Martlets can wrap up the QSSF championship and win the Dr. Ed Enos trophy for the fourth straight year, on Friday at McConnell Arena (7 p.m.). 9I制作厂免费 has only won the Quebec title on their own ice once before -- in 2006 against the Gee-Gees.

MARTLET MURMURS: Vanessa Davidson and Jasmine Sheehan each picked up a pair of assists鈥� Davidson leads all QSSF playoff scorers with a 2-8-10 record in three games鈥� Leclerc-Auger is second with a 6-2-8 record鈥� 9I制作厂免费, in the final for the 11th time in 12 years, will be looking for their sixth league title overall. They previously won conference championships in 1985, 2003, 2006, 2007 and 2008.
