Canavan tallied six points on three goals last week in what was a 1-1 week for the Ravens.

Canavan's hat trick was the ninth in program history and the first for the Ravens since Oct. 12, 2011.

It is the second time this season Canavan has earned Rookie of the Week honors from the Northeast-10, as she was also honored for the week ending on Sept. 14. She is the only player in the league to twice be named Rookie of the Week thus far in 2014.
The Ravens (5-7, 2-3 Northeast-10) return to the field on Wednesday, Oct. 29, when they return home to host Bentley in a Northeast-10 Conference contest. Game time is set for 4 p.m. at Sodexo Field in Rindge.
