Bowling Green, KY- For the fourth consecutive week the No. 6 Patriots bring home MSC weekly honors.
Jayden Boelter earns her 2
nd offensive player of the week award this season after her performance on this pitch this week.
Cumberlands went head to head against RV University of Northwestern in Lima, OH early this week. The Patriots knocked in three goals while preventing the UNOH offense from racking up any shots on goal. This was the Patriots fourth shutout of the season.
Boelter booted in two goals during the UNOH match to help boost UC past the Racers. Both of her goals came during the second period. The first goal occurred during the 63' after she received an assist from midfield that was launched to the outside of the 18 yard box. Boelter battled against two Racer defeners and sent eh ball past the UNOH goalkeeper.
The sophomore brought in her second goal of the game during the 73
rd minute. Using her speed, she intercepted a pass between two Racer defenders bouncing the ball off of her chest and onto her boot. The UNOH goalkeeper attempted to snag the ball but Boelter was too quick and found herself in front of an unguarded goal. She tapped it into the back of the net as the Patriots final goal of the game.
This Boelter's third MSC Offensive Player of the Week award since beginning her career in 2021. The sophomore now has 7 goals on the season and sits in 4
th place for all time goals scored.
The Patriots are set to take the field again Thursday, September 15
th against #10 Southeastern. This is UC's final match before starting MSC play next week. Live video for this weeks game can be viewed
