ROCK HILL, S.C. --- Tusculum senior attacker
Kelsey Crow has been selected as the South Atlantic Conference
Offensive Player of the week, announced today by the league office.
It is her first SAC offensive award this season, and second weekly
honor.
Crow tallied 13 points on 12 goals and one assist to help lead
TC to a 2-1 record last week. She scored five goals and posted two
draw controls in the Pioneers' 12-7 victory at Shorter on Tuesday.
The Franklin, Tennessee native also registered three goals against
Southeast Region perennial power Tampa on Thursday, before scoring
four goals and an assisting on another score in Tusculum's 15-7 SAC
win at Newberry on Saturday.
Crow also helped the Pioneer defensive effort with four ground
balls and two caused turnovers in the three games. 12 of her 21
total shots on goal found the back of the cage for a 57.1 shooting
percentage and her first goal against Newberry was the
game-winner.
Crow leads the SAC and ranks fourth in all of NCAA Division II
with 31 goals this season. She is also tied with teammate Cheyenne
Bray for first in the conference in points with 36, which is
ninth-best in the country. Crow also has a league-high 50 shots for
a shooting percentage of .620 and has a total of 15 ground balls,
eight draw controls and seven caused turnovers.
Crow and the rest of the Pioneers will be back in action on
Wednesday afternoon when they head to Harrogate, Tennessee to face
Lincoln Memorial University. First draw is set for 4 p.m.
