FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (October 12, 2021) - Following a pair of impressive games for both, Sam Larberg and Rylie Curran were named Big Sky Offensive and Defensive Athletes of the Week. It is the first time both of the athletes have earned the accolades in their careers as Lumberjacks.
Larberg scored three goals over the weekend, two on Friday against Weber State and one against Idaho State on Sunday. Her pair of goals on Friday came just two minutes apart on a second-chance goal along with quick read to pass up WSU's defenders. Larberg scored the first goal of the match on Sunday in the second half, firing up the Lumberjack offense.
Curran has put on an impressive show on the backline throughout the season, while showcasing her dominant performance this weekend against the Wildcats and Bengals. Curran had three slide tackles to breakup set pieces from both WSU and ISU's offense, holding opponents to one goal on the weekend and seven shots on goal.
