After helping the Boston University field hockey team capture its fourth America East title in the last five seasons, senior co-captain Haley Robinson has been named the GoTerriers.com Student-Athlete of the Week.

Robinson, an All-Conference First Team defender, was named the Most Outstanding Player of the tournament following the Terriers' 5-2 victory over defending champion and top-seeded Albany in the championship game. On Friday, BU posted a 4-1 win over third-seeded Maine in the semifinal round.

In each of the two games, Robinson and the BU defense shut out the opponent in the first half, allowing the Terriers to jump out to a 3-0 lead against Maine and a 4-0 advantage against Albany. Robinson also earned an assist on BU's third goal against the Black Bears.
