PSAC East Player of the Week
Amanda Riley, Bloomsburg
Junior, Forward
Tannersville, Pa./Pocono Mountain West
Riley earns her second PSAC East Player of the Week award of the season after scoring a goal and dishing out three assists in a 2-0 week for the Huskies, who wrapped up their third straight PSAC East title and the right to host this weekend’s PSAC Tournament. Riley started the week by handing out two assists in Bloomsburg’s 3-1 win over Slippery Rock on Tuesday. After The Rock held a 1-0 lead at halftime, Riley assisted on Jenna DiSabatino’s game-tying goal just 40 seconds into the second half. She later assisted on an insurance goal by Ashley Miller that put the Huskies up 3-1 in the 69th minute. Riley then scored a goal, which was the game-winner, and had another assist in Saturday’s division-clinching 4-0 win over C.W. Post.
PSAC West Player of the Week
Kristie Rollman, Mansfield
Freshman, Goalkeeper
Forty Fort, Pa./Wyoming Valley West
Rollman’s outstanding play in goal in Mansfield’s 2-1 win at Mercyhurst on Saturday in its only game of the week not only helped the Mountaineers to the win but also clinch second place in the PSAC West and a berth in the PSAC Tournament, the program’s first since 2006. Rollman made 10 saves, including four in the game’s final nine minutes to preserve the win. After the Mountaineers took a 2-0 lead in the 23rd minute, the Lakers cut the lead to 2-1 in just the second minute of the second half and from there, outshot Mansfield 9-5 in the second half. But Rollman held strong in the cage, stopping five shots in the second half.
