She put away both goals against Randolph, as she has scored all three goals for the Saints so far this year ... Salisbury freshman Mackenzie Ryan scored the game-winning goal in Salisbury's first win of the season. Although only a freshman, Ryan has managed to make her presence known up front for the Sea Gulls. Salisbury's Alyssa Brady started on defense in all three games this past week and has proven to be a lock down defender in the middle of the field. Brady played her best game of the season on Friday when she and her teammates held a good Lynchburg to only one goal. ... Southern Virginia senior Kora Jewell scored the Knights only goal of the season thus far against Bridgewater (Va.) ... Wesley's Janiah Moore tallied two goals and an assist in Wesley's 2-0 week.
