Hailey Crittenden and Ashleigh Rothe earn GLIAC Player of the Week Honors

04.01.2024

ALLENDALE, MICH. – It was another clean sweep of the GLIAC Player of the Week awards for the GVSU women's lacrosse teams. Hailey Crittenden and Ashleigh Rothe took home the honors this week, as the Lakers swept the accolades for the third time this season.
 
Hailey Crittenden has been named GLIAC Offensive Player of the Week for the first time in her career. She scored a career-high six goals in last Thursday's 16-9 victory over Indianapolis. Crittenden had a hat trick already tallied by the end of the first half, then recorded three more in the second half to help secure the win. She also added an assist and three groundballs. Her six goals brought her to 19 on the year and helped the ninth-ranked Lakers move to 8-1 this season.
 
GVSU junior midfielder Ashleigh Rothe took home GLIAC Defensive Player of the Week honors this week. Rothe grabbed four draw controls, picked up three groundballs, and forced two Greyhound turnovers. Her defensive effort played a big role in holding UIndy to their fewest shots of the season, their most turnovers of the year, and their lowest scoring total of the season. She also tallied a hat trick on just three shots, as the Lakers picked up a big 16-9 win over Indianapolis.
 
The Lakers begin GLIAC play this weekend, traveling to Northern Michigan on Friday and then heading to CSP for a matchup on Sunday.
