CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - U.S. Olympian teammates Kelli Stack and Molly Schaus were named Pure Hockey Co-Player of the Week and Defensive Player of the Week, respectively, as announced by the Hockey East on Monday, November 22. This is Stack's second weekly honor this season, and Schaus' first.
Stack had one of her best games this season on Saturday, November 20 in the first game of a weekend series against cross town rival Boston University. She scored a hat trick - her second of the season - in the 6-3 win. Her three goals came in the first two periods to lead the Eagles to an early 5-0 advantage. The Brooklyn Heights, Ohio native currently leads the team in goals (14) and points (23) and is second in assists (9).
Schaus rejoined her team this past weekend after winning a silver medal with the U.S. team at the Four Nations Cup in St. John's, Newfoundland. The Natick, Mass. native picked up right where she left off, recording 24 saves on Saturday and turning away another 22 shots on Sunday for a total of 46 in the series. She split the weekend with a win and a loss but only allowed four goals to sneak past her. So far this season Schaus is posting an impressive 1.29 GAA and a .943 save percentage.
Next up, the Eagles host Dartmouth at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday, November 24 before traveling to New Hampshire for a 2:00 p.m. game on Sunday, November 28.
