Pacific Field Hockey: Muhl Named West Defensive Player of the Week

(October 27, 2009) - While etching her name a little deeper in the record books, senior Lisa Muhl (Harleysville, Pa.) of the Pacific field hockey team received recognition from the NorPac Conference this week. The captain earned west defensive player of the week honors after grabbing four defensive saves in three contests to improve her career total to 19.

Muhl now sits comfortably in the Pacific record books as the all-time defensive saves leader. While facing top 20 teams Louisville and Indiana along with Penn State over the weekend, Muhl doubled her previous season total in defensive saves and currently leads the league in the stat.

Pacific will look to the senior to continue her play as they close out their regular season at home against NorPac rival UC Davis. This will be the Tigers Senior Day and Think Pink Game. Game time is set for 1 p.m. on Brookside field.
