South Orange, N.J. - Following a shutout victory at Iona on Sunday, senior Grace Gordon (Chester Springs, Pa.) has been named BIG EAST Goalkeeper of the Week. Classmate Abbie Roberts (Bedfordshire, England) was named to the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll.
Gordon picks up her second career conference goalkeeper of the week honor after she made five stops against the Gaels. Four of her five saves came in the second half, helping securing the Pirates' third victory of the season. Gordon currently ranks 17th in the nation, and first in the BIG EAST, for save percentage (.900) and 18th nationally for goals against average (.360).
Roberts scored her second goal of the season and her career on Sunday, both of them serving as game winners. Her tally came in the 73rd minute and was one of her two shots on goal. As a defensive midfielder, she helped Seton Hall in a clean sheet effort against the Gaels.
