Â
BETHLEHEM, Pa. - After impressing in her first collegiate action over the weekend, Lehigh field hockey freshman Paige Innarella has been named Patriot League Goalkeeper of the Week. Innarella stopped 11-of-13 shots sent her way over two games, playing in the second half vs. Bucknell and the entire contest against Providence.
Â
Against the Bison, Innarella made four saves on five shots, helping keep the Mountain Hawks within striking distance until the very end as Lehigh dropped a slim 2-1 final.
Â
Innarella then made her first-career against Providence Sunday, finishing with seven saves while allowing just one goal. She was part of a defense that held tough despite 21 Friars' shots. Providence entered the game averaging 2.43 goals per game, including six over its previous two games.
Â
Innarella now owns a 1.33 GAA and .846 save percentage on the season.
Â
The Mountain Hawks return to action this weekend when they head to our nation's capital to face American on Saturday (12 p.m.) and Georgetown on Sunday (1 p.m.).
