Over 135 career games, the forward amassed 68 goals and 56 assists for 124 points, finishing among the program's all-time leaders in both goals and scoring.

Her senior campaign in 2025-26, in which she served as a tri-captain, was her most dominant, as she recorded 25 goals and 23 assists for 48 points, leading the conference in multiple offensive categories.
