Hordendorf named NEC Player of the Week for second time this season
 

SOMERSET, N.J. – Sophomore Amy Hordendorf (Topton, Pa./Brandywine Heights) of the Lock Haven University field hockey team has been named Northeast Conference (NEC) Player of the Week for her recent efforts in leading the Lady Eagles to a 3-0 week.

This marks the second time this season that Hordendorf has been named NEC Player of the Week.

Lock Haven’s potent offensive attack was clicking on all cylinders this past week as the Lady Eagles went 3-0, extending their win streak to five games and improving to 7-2 overall.

LHU outscored its opponents 13-2 in the three matches and Hordendorf led the way with a team-high six goals. She also dished out one assist for a league-best 13 points.

In a 2-1 win over La Salle on the road, she scored the games first goal in the 21st minute.

Hordendorf followed that up with a two-goal, one assist outing in a lopsided 7-1 win at home over Colgate.

Hordendorf saved the best for last and capped of the weekend with the natural hat trick in a 4-0 shut out of visiting Bucknell yesterday. She scored the first of her three goals just 1:25 in and recorded all three strikes in the opening half of play.

This marks the fourth straight week a Lady Eagles has taken home NEC Player of the Week accolades.
