STANDISH, ME – SJC women's lacrosse standout Alyssa Marchant '11 (Wakefield, MA) has collected ECAC DIII New England Offensive Co-Player of the Week honors.

Marchant had 14 goals, four assists and 28 draw controls in a 2-0 week for the Monks.  She recorded 13 points with 10 goals and three assists and had 20 draw controls in a season-opening win over Maine-Farmington on Tuesday. Later in the week, she tallied four goals and an assist in a 16-5 win over Thomas College. The regional honor is the first of her career.

Marchant leads the Monks in goals (19), points (23) and draw controls (33) through three games. Through games played on March 27th, Marchant led all of NCAA DIII Women's Lacrosse in goals per game (7.00) and draw controls per game (14.00) and ranked second in points per game (9.00).

Marchant, who also garnered Great Northeast Athletic Conference (GNAC) Player of the Week honors on Monday, shares the regional honor with Curry College senior attacker Ashley Hansbury (Chelmsford, MA).

The senior captain ranks as the program's all-time leader in goals (172), shots (338), ground balls (147) and caused turnovers (43) and currently ranks second in points (199) and draw controls (116).

Marchant is the second St. Joe's player to earn the ECAC honor as former teammate Lauren Hagerman '10 collected the regional accolade on March 30th last season.

Saint Joseph's (3-0) will play at GNAC-rival Simmons College on Wednesday at 7:00 PM.
