New was as dominant as ever last weekend, combining for 12 goals and one assist in two wins for the Wildcats, en route to the second A-10 weekly honor of her career.
The senior matched her career-high in goals, with an incredible seven-goal effort on Sunday against St. Bonaventure, where she also recorded the 100th goal of her career and now has 105 career scores. In a win over Duquesne on Friday night, the New York native also added five goals and dished one assist.
