Quinnipiac women’s ice hockey just lost its leading goal scorer from the 2023-2024 season. Senior forward Nina Steigauf has entered the transfer portal, according to Gopher Puck Live. 

Steigauf was the leading scorer (16) and fourth in points (32) for the Bobcats, who were swept out of the ECAC Quarterfinals by Cornell on March 2. 

The Oakdale, Minnesota, native’s best game of the year came during an 8-0 win on Jan. 12 where she notched a goal and three assists on the night. 

“We’re a program that believes that every single play matters, and every play going forth matters too,” Steigauf said following the 8-0 win over Harvard. 

The senior forward played in 132 career games during her time at Quinnipiac, tallying 41 goals and 42 assists. 

“It’s awesome to be a part of such a great program that supports you,” Steigauf said following her 100th career game on Oct. 13. “(We) just have a great group of girls that you can really rely on them with anything, and it’s just fun to succeed together.”

Steigauf joins a growing list of Bobcats entering the portal, including forwards, senior Kate Villenueve, juniors Veronica Bac and Mallory Mauracher, sophomore Sami Bowlby and freshman goaltender Lucy Phillips.
