Offensive Player of the Week
Alena Weibel, Roberts Wesleyan (Sophomore - Forward, Sauquoit, N.Y.)
Weibel scored twice in Roberts Wesleyan's 2-0 week to open the 2023 campaign. In the season opener against Lake Erie on Thursday, Weibel broke a 1-1 tie with a 22-yard blast into the upper-right corner in the 83rd minute to lift the Redhawks to a 2-1 victory. Against Clarion on Saturday, Weibel opened the scoring in the fifth minute as the sophomore ran onto the ball about 35 yards from goal, eluded the keeper, and deposited a left-footed shot into the net from 20 yards out; the Redhawks would win that match 2-1.

Defensive Player of the Week
Erin Kelly, Queens (Graduate Student - Goalkeeper, Massapequa, N.Y.)
In two starts against tough regional opponents, Kelly made a combined 16 saves against Southern Connecticut and Franklin Pierce. Making her debut against the Owls on Friday evening, Kelly made seven saves to ensure the Knights would leave the pitch with a draw in their season opener. Against #12 Franklin Pierce, the Massapequa native made a season-high nine saves on Sunday afternoon, including eight in the first half to keep the host off the scoreboard.
