CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - Stony Brook junior Larissa Nysch earned
America East women's soccer Player of the Week, while Vermont freshman Ally
Ramos was named Rookie of the Week for the week ending Oct. 14, the conference
office announced Monday.
Nysch (Dresher,
Pa.) was the only multi-goal scorer in the America East last week, scoring both
of her goals in a, 5-1, win over Maine on Thursday night. Nysch scored her
first goal at 15:19 to give Stony Brook a 1-0 lead, and then scored just 48
seconds later (the eventual game-winning goal) to make it 2-0. Nysch leads the
Seawolves with six goals and 15 points this season.
Ramos (Setauket,
N.Y.) led UVM to a 1-0-1 week in league play, ranking second in the
conference with 16 saves, while also holding a .941 save percentage (third in
the conference) and a 0.45 goals against average (third in the conference). She
made seven saves in a 0-0 double-overtime draw with UMBC and picked up her
first career shutout on Thursday. The freshman followed that with a career-high
nine stops in a 2-1 victory over Albany.

Boston University claimed at-least a share of its
sixth-straight America East title with wins over Hartford and Binghamton last
