Greeley earns ECAC Offensive Player of the Week
September 21, 2011
BETHLEHEM, Pa. - Following a three-goal weekend to earn her Patriot League Offensive Player of the Week, Lehigh sophomore forward Murphee Greeley has been named ECAC Division I Offensive Player of the Week. Greeley scored three of Lehigh’s six goals last weekend in a pair of Mountain Hawk road victories. That included two goals at Quinnipiac and the game-winning marker at NJIT.
For Greeley, this marks her first-career ECAC weekly honor. She currently owns two-career Patriot League weekly awards, also winning Rookie of the Week once last season. Greeley began on Friday by scoring a career-high two goals against the Bobcats, marking her first-career multi-goal game. She gave Lehigh a 2-0 advantage at 20:39 while scoring an insurance tally at 51:40 to make it 4-1. She also helped set up the Mountain Hawks’ third (and eventual game-winning) goal at 50:23. Greeley’s shot helped set up fellow sophomore Paige Dyrek perfectly for the tap-in.
The Devon, Pa. native made her impact known quickly on Sunday at NJIT; she entered the match at 23:56 and scored the game’s first goal less than three minutes later. In total, Greeley finished the weekend with seven shots (five on goal). She now leads the team with three goals and seven points in 2011.
