Chestnut Hill, Mass. - Sophomore forward Deborah Spillane was named Co-Player of the Week, Hockey East announced on Monday. Spillane has totaled five points in two games, including the overtime game-winning goal against Quinnipiac on Friday night.
The Eagles went 2-0 this weekend, including a win over Hockey East opponent Maine, which makes the Eagles, 1-0 in league play.
In BC's season opener over Quinnipiac, Spillane netted her first two goals of the season and added an assist on the night. Although she did not score a goal in the team's Hockey East opener against Maine on Sunday, she did assist on two of the Eagle's five goals.
