Northeast-10 Field Hockey Weekly Report (PDF)

RINDGE, N.H. (September 6, 2016) – Junior goalkeeper Meaghan Williams (Salem, N.H.) of the Franklin Pierce University field hockey team has been named Northeast-10 Conference Goalkeeper of the Week for the week ending on Sept. 4, as announced on Tuesday afternoon by the Conference office.

Williams played every minute in goal last week, as the Ravens opened their 2016 campaign with a pair of shutout victories. On Thursday night, she stood tall by piling up nine saves in a 1-0 win at Bentley. Williams was less busy in Saturday afternoon's home opener, but stopped both shots on her cage in a 3-0 win over Mercy.

The back-to-back shutouts were the fifth and sixth of her career, as well as the 18th and 19th wins of her career, leaving her just six wins behind the program record held by Brittany Nyzio '12. Dating to the end of last season, Williams is currently riding a shutout streak of 146:17.

The Ravens return to the field on Wednesday, Sept. 7, when they travel to Southern Connecticut State for a non-conference contest. Game time is set for 7 p.m. at Jess Dow Field in New Haven, Conn.
