York sophomore Autumn Mallory earned CAC Offensive Player of the Week accolades after scoring both goals in the Spartans' 2-1 upset victory over fourth-ranked Franklin & Marshall in York's only game of the week. Mallory tallied her first goal seven minutes into the game off a pass from Ali Posey, before scoring what would be the game-winning goal with just over ten minutes left in the first half on another pass from Posey. Mallory scored her two goals on just three shots.

York freshman Jennifer Morrissette was selected as the CAC Defensive Player of the Week after helping the Spartans to a 2-1 win over fourth-ranked Franklin & Marshall last Tuesday. Morrissette recorded her fifth defensive save of the year in the first half as the York defense kept F&M off the board in the opening stanza. York surrendered a goal early in the second half, but the Morrissette-led defense did not allow another goal even when F&M pulled its goalkeeper with just over five minutes left in regulation to give the Diplomats an extra attacker.
