UBC defenceman Sarah Casorso was named the Canada West third star after a standout weekend for the Thunderbirds. An offensive catalyst for the UBC women’s hockey team she  recorded five points in two games against the Calgary Dinos in Vancouver.
 
She collected three assists in UBC’s 4-0 win on Friday, including two on the first goals of the game 27 seconds apart late in the first period.
 
On Saturday, the Thunderbirds fell behind 3-1 entering the third period but mounted a comeback to tie the game at 3-3 and send it to overtime. Eventually, Calgary won in a shootout 4-3.
 
Casorso was a big part of the comeback, recording an assist on the power play goal that made it 3-2.  Then with just over four minutes left in regulation, she tied the game with an even strength goal.
 
The fourth-year player from Kelowna, B.C. now has eight points in four regular season games, putting her at the top of the Canada West scoring race.
 
UBC will travel east to face Regina in a two-game set, starting Friday.
