Career-High Three Goals Highlights Week for Sophomore Forward
BOSTON – Finn Caron (Hampton, N.H.), a sophomore forward on the University of New Hampshire field hockey team, was named America East co-Offensive Player of the Week on Tuesday.
Caron recorded four goals for a total of eight points to propel UNH to a pair of victories last week that extended the Wildcats' win streak to three games. She scored four of the team's seven goals on eight shots (seven shots on goal).
In the 3-2 win against 18th-ranked Stanford University, Caron scored the second of two UNH goals in a 17-second span that transformed a 1-0 halftime deficit into a 2-1 third-quarter lead. She forced her way past a defender and then pushed the ball through the Stanford goalie for the go-ahead goal.
In the 4-2 win vs. Brown University, Caron finished with a career-high three goals for a personal best of six points. She tied the game, 1-1, in the 12th minute and then gave the Wildcats a 2-1 lead in the 25th minute when she redirected a long entry pass from midfield into the cage from 10 yards out. Caron scored off her own rebound in the 54th minute to give UNH a 4-2 lead.
New Hampshire returns to action Sept. 20 (4 p.m.) at Dartmouth College. The Wildcats' next home game is their America East opener Oct. 4 against conference newcomer Monmouth University; start time is 4 p.m.
