Freshman goalie Casey Murphy picked up two Big Ten weekly honors as she was named Freshman of the Week as well as Co-Defensive Player of the Week.  This was the second week in a row that Murphy earned the honor.  Murphy shut out a Lions team that was averaging almost three goals per game.  It was her fourth shutout in a row.

On the offensive side of the ball, sophomore Madison Tiernan was named Big Ten Co-Offensive Player of the Week.  Tiernan scored the sole goal in a 1-0 win over No. 6 Penn State. It was Tiernan's fourth goal of the season.

The Knights are home to both illinois (Oct. 17, 7:00 pm) and Northwestern (Oct. 19, 1:00 pm) this week.
