Kieran Mullins- #8 Rutgers, Attack, Islip: ’21: 19 G, 35 PTS
It seems like the Scarlet Knights Wayne Duke Award recipient scores better on the road than at home. The captain earned his second five-goal game of the season at Panzer Stadium in Centre County, P.A Saturday afternoon. He led the team with five goals, shot 46 percent from the field and dished an assist in the 22-10 win over Penn State. Mullins currently sits second in program history with 214 career points and eighth with 118 career goal and 96 assists.
Pat Kavanagh- #2 Notre Dame, Sophomore, Attack, Rockville Centre: ’21: 27 AST, 39 PTS, 19 GB
While scoring one goal and one assist may be low praise, doing it to beat the top-ranked team in the nation earns the Chaminade graduate a spot on this list. The sophomore got his team on the board after the Blue Devils scored the first goal of the game. He later dished an assist in the midst of a three-goal run for Notre Dame. The attackman leads the team in goals, assists and points.
Paulina DiFatta- #19 Elon, Rs-Senior, Goalkeeper: ’21: GA/AVG: 5.37, SV: 49 , SV%: .570
The goalkeeper made sure the heavy-favorite Elon Rams walked out of its non-conference game vs VCU victorious. DiFatta followed up her season-high 13 save performance last week with five saves on nine shots faced while only allowing two goals.
Dynamic Duo of the Week- Emma & Meaghan Tyrell- # 3 Syracuse, Midfield and Attack
There’s no questioning the chemistry between the sisters of Mt. Sinai. Two of the town’s best playmakers created plenty of scoring chances Saturday evening– something which was needed against the dynamic #6 Virginia Cavaliers. Meaghan scored a career-high five of the duo’s six goals while Emma won four draw controls on the day. Their on-ball presence contributed to a 15-12 win for the Orange. Meaghan tops the team with 33 goals and the conference with 50 points while Emma has 15 points and six draw control wins this season.
