Mary Washington senior Kathleen Namey was chosen as the CAC Offensive Player of the Week after scoring both goals in the Eagles 2-1 victory over No. 5 Salisbury on Saturday. Namey's first goal came in the 13th minute to give UMW the early lead, while she buried the game-winner with less than eight minutes remaining. Namey has 14 goals and five assists on the season.

Co-Defensive Players of the Week

Springfield, Va. | West Springfield      

Christopher Newport freshman Brittan Muir was selected as the CAC Co-Defensive Player of the Week after anchoring the Captains' defense to a trio of victories last week, including a pair of wins over top-20 opponents. Against No. 18 Catholic, she helped lead a defense that allowed just six shots to the Cardinals, which equaled CUA's lowest total in a game since 2010. Two days later, she helped lift CNU past No. 13 Mary Washington, 2-1. Against the Eagles, she paced a stout defensive unit which kept UMW scoreless on its 13 penalty corner attempts while allowing just nine total shots during the game. On Saturday against Frostburg State, she helped the defensive corner unit shut down all seven of the Bobcats' attempts. Overall, Muir played all 210 minutes during the week and led a defense that did not allow a goal on 25 penalty corner attempts while also chipping in with a game-winning goal and assisting on another clinching strike.

Mary Washington senior Carlee Budd was named the CAC Co-Defensive Player of the Week after recording a career-high four defensive saves in the Eagles' 2-1 win over Salisbury on Saturday. Two of Budd's defensive saves came after the final horn sounded on penalty corner shots to keep the Eagles ahead in the one-goal victory. The four defensive saves were one shy of tying the CAC single-game record.
