GOAT of the Game
Our GOAT of the game went to one of our defenders, Aurianna Lastowski. Auri played one of the best games of her career in her return to the lineup and her toughness and leadership stood out tremendously. She helped lead the Saints defense to only allowing two shots on goal. She was first to every ball she coud get to and never backed down from any challenge. Auri is a sophomore captain and we love her and what she brings to the field every game. She is a true leader! Congrats Auri!!
