NEWMAC Women's Lacrosse Player of the Week 

Jackie Godfrey, Babson College, M, JR (Franklin, Mass.)

Godfrey was spectacular in the NEWMAC Tournament for Babson, leading the Beavers to their second straight championship and NCAA Tournament berth. In two games, the junior midfielder totaled eight goals and three assists for a team-high 11 points while also leading the squad with seven draw controls and five caused turnovers. She recorded five goals, one assist, three groundballs, and four caused turnovers in Babson's 14-6 win over fifth-seeded MIT in Saturday's semifinal round, and then added three goals, including the game-winner, to go along with two assists and five draw controls in the Beavers' 18-2 victory over third-seeded Wellesley in Sunday's Championship Game.
