Just before Monmouth’s victory against Delaware, the Hawks faced Stony Brook on Thursday Oct. 3, that ended in a tie, 2-2.
Freshman Ashley Lavrich led her team to the win as she netted both goals for the Hawks. Following her performance, league officials named her the Coastal Athletic Association (CAA) Rookie of the Week.
Lavrich, the forward from Birdsboro, Pennsylvania, is no stranger to these accolades. Prior to coming to Monmouth Lavrich attended Twin Valley where she was named her team MVP three times. She earned All-Conference accolades three times and was selected as an Athlete of the Year finalist as a junior.
This is Lavrich’s third CAA Rookie of the Week award this season but comes with no surprise considering her skill and contribution to the team. Lavrich currently leads the team in assists with six, which not only leads her team but puts her in a tie for second in the CAA. Her six assists and four goals this season accumulate to 14 points which gives her a spot tied for sixth in the CAA in points per game, with 1.08.
As a freshman here at Monmouth, Lavrich will only continue to see success.
