Bruce Named WIAC
Soccer Offensive Player of the Week
Jenny Bruce has received All-Region,
All-Conference and Academic All-American awards, but finally she is a
Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference Player of the Week.
Despite being a three-time first-team All-WIAC
selection and two-time first-team All-Region performer, the UW-Stevens
Point senior forward had never earned the conference�s weekly honor until
now after her eight-point opening weekend.
Bruce, a former Menasha High School standout,
scored the game-winning goal with 4:25 left to lead the 10th-ranked
Pointers past then 22nd-ranked St. Thomas 3-2 on Friday. She also added
two goals and two assists in Sunday�s 8-1 win over Lawrence.
Bruce ranks eighth on the conference�s all-time
scoring list with 121 career points and needs one assist to become the
third player in WIAC history and 28th player in NCAA Division III history
to record at least 40 goals and 40 assists in a career.
UW-Stevens Point is currently 2-0 overall and
hosts Carleton in a non-conference match Thursday at 4 p.m. at the Pointer
Soccer Bowl. |
