CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - After leading the No. 12 Boston University field hockey team to a thrilling road win in its America East opener at No. 23 Albany, senior Tabi Hatch has been named the America East Player of the Week, as announced by the league office on Monday.
Hatch scored the game-tying and game-winning goals on her only two shots of the game. The senior striker's two tallies came in the game's final 8:37 after the Great Danes opened the scoring in the 58th minute.
In the 62nd minute, Hatch knotted the game with a shot from above the right post following a pass by classmate Macey Gaumond. Just four miuntes later, senior Leslie Zules set up Hatch for the game-winner. Hatch also helped set up the Terriers' second goal in a 3-2 loss to No. 5 UConn Sunday.
Hatch is the second Terrier to be named America East Player of the Week this season, joining senior Jacinda McLeod.
BU (7-4, 1-0 America East) will return to action on Saturday (Oct. 6) when it travels to face Vermont for a noon contest.
