WESTON, Mass. – Freshman goalkeeper Rachel Gagnon (Ashford, Conn.) has been named NECC Rookie of the Week for her standout performances in games against New England College and Lyndon State College.
Gagnon picked up her second consecutive shutout of the season in a 4-0 victory over the Pilgrims this past Thursday in a game where she was tested early and often. The rookie did not budge and made several dazzling stops en route to a nine save performance.
Gagnon came up big again in a 1-0 hard-fought loss to Lyndon State on Saturday. She recorded five saves on the day against the host squad.
The Pride returns to action on Wednesday night as the team travels to Massachusetts Maritime for a 7:00 p.m. non-conference matchup with the Buccaneers.
