Teresa Johnstone, Centre College, Field Hockey (Co-Offensive)


TERESA JOHNSTONE OF CENTRE COLLEGE, a senior forward from Louisville, Ky., has been selected as the SCAC Field Hockey Co-Offensive Player-of-the-Week for matches played Monday, October 6 through Sunday, October 12.
 
Johnstone added to her SCAC leading goal total with two game-winning goals this past week in wins over SCAC foes Rhodes and Sewanee. Johnstone's efforts were aided by spectacular performances across the pitch by the Colonels, as five different players tallied points on the weekend and the team recorded two more shutouts. Centre outshot both opponents by a combined 36-16 margin en route to their ninth and tenth wins. 

Johnstone scored the first goal against Rhodes off a penalty corner assist from Beth Faulkner (Louisville, Ky.). Against Sewanee, she scored on a break-away opportunity in the first overtime to give Centre their third over-time win in their last four matches.
