York sophomore Lindsay Nye was selected as the CAC Offensive Player of the Week after totaling six goals in a pair of overtime road wins for the Spartans last week.

Her five goals broke the previous school record of four. In Saturday's win at Shenandoah, Nye scored 1:40 into overtime to lift the Spartans to the 3-2 win.

Christopher Newport senior Sarah Miller was honored as the CAC Defensive Player of the Week after recording a pair of defensive saves in a 2-0 week for the Captains. Miller played all 141 minutes during CNU's two victories over Centre and DePauw. Against Centre on Friday, she registered a pair of defensive saves, including one late in the second half, which helped force overtime on the way to the one-goal win. Two days later, she anchored a defensive unit that allowed just six total shots in a 2-1 win over DePauw, equaling the Tigers fewest attempts in a game since their Final Four bout against Tufts in 2012.
