LATHAM, N.Y. - Thanks to her efforts during the team's most recent pair of victories, Penn State Harrisburg women's soccer player Abigail Mahaffey has been named the United East Offensive Player of the Week.
Mahaffey helped lead Penn State Harrisburg to a pair of wins in United East play, scoring three goals as the Lions (6-5-1, 5-0 United East) secured sole possession of first place in the conference standings. The freshman opened the week with a goal in a 3-1 victory over Penn College on Wednesday night. The Stevensville, Md. native followed it up with a two-goal performance in a 5-0 road victory over Penn State Brandywine on Saturday afternoon to finish the week with six points across the two conference contests.
The Lions continue United East play when they travel to Lancaster Bible on Saturday afternoon.
