Marty has also been a member of the Swiss National Team since 2003 and was nominated to be the ’Swiss Hockey Woman of the Year’ in 2005. The Nussbaumen, Switzerland native recorded 26 goals and 23 assists in 72 games with the Swiss in international competition. Marty was a member of the Swiss Olympic hockey team that competed in the 2006 Torino Games. She has also participated in the 2005 World Championship in Romanshorn, Switzerland, the 2007 World Championship in Winnipeg, Manitoba and 2008 World Championship in Harbin, China, placing first, fifth and fourth, respectively.

Syracuse Plays 30 Games against 12 Teams The Orange will play 12 home games at the Tennity Ice Skating Pavilion, two at the Onondaga County War Memorial, and 17 games on the road. The dates and times of the games scheduled for the War Memorial are set for Friday, Nov. 14 against Mercyhurst and Friday, Feb. 20 against St. Anselm’s. SU will play each of the four conference opponents four times this season. Out of conference, SU was tested against a solid Colgate team in the first of many meetings that could develop into a great intrastate rivalry. The Orange squared off against Wisconsin, a team that’s won two out of the previous three NCAA championships. Syracuse’s first home game comes against independent program Sacred Heart on Halloween night. The Orange will hit the ice with Sacred Heart three more times throughout the regular season. The games against University of Ottawa, McGill University and Carelton University will be a great way to promote the SU brand of hockey internationally. All three games are exhibition matches and will not count towards SU’s overall record. Syracuse travels to Quinnipiac in mid-October for two non-conference bouts. St. Anselm’s rounds out the Orange’s non-conference ticket in the second half of the season. New York Natives Three members of the ice hockey team hail from New York. Juniors Lucy Schoedel (Ithaca, N.Y.) and Gabrielle Beuadry (Cortland, N.Y.) drove up I-81 from their respective towns of Ithaca and Cortland. Freshman Katelyn Bero (Akwesasne, N.Y.) comes to Syracuse from Akwesasne, an Upstate New York town within an hour of Montreal, Quebec.
