FIELD HOCKEY - DEFENSIVE POTW

Olivia Davis | Christopher Newport | Jr. | GK

Ashburn, Va. | Briar Woods

Davis was named Defensive Player of the Week for the second week in a row after leading the 11th-ranked Captains to a pair of shutouts. On Wednesday against Lynchburg, she blanked the Hornets with five saves during a 1-0 victory. That marked the first time Lynchburg was shut out in over a calendar year. The Hornets had scored a goal in 22 straight games before Wednesday's clash. Following up that performance, she registered seven saves during a 3-0 triumph over Centre on Sunday. The Colonels entered that game ranked fourth in the NCAA in goals-per-game with a 5.00 average. With her two shutouts, Davis became the first Captain since 2016 to record back-to-back 70-minute shutouts. Additionally, coupled with her six saves at the end of the game against Mary Washington on September 30, she has now stopped 18 consecutive on-target shots. That is tied for the fifth-longest streak in program history and the best run since Bailey Lien established the school record with 22 straight saves during the 2014 campaign.
