UNIVERSITY OF RICHMOND, Va. - Freshman Lindsey Conrad earned a share of her third-straight Atlantic 10 Field Hockey honor, conference officials announced Monday. Conrad, along with UMass' Cher King were named Co-Rookie of the Week winners following their performances this past weekend.
Conrad, who ranks second on the team with 29 total points, scored two goals on the weekend to help the Spiders extend their win streak to six-straight in 2006. The Wilkes-Barre, Pa., native recorded 10 shots, all on goal, in the Spiders' 5-2 win over the UMass Minutewomen Sunday.
