Wheaton First Year Emily Hough Named NEWMAC Women's Soccer Player of the Week

NEWMAC Women's Soccer Player of the Week:

Emily Hough, Wheaton, F, FY (Norwich, VT)

Hough played a role in three of the nationally-ranked Lyons' seven goals over the weekend, helping propel Wheaton to its seventh NEWMAC Tournament title in eight seasons. During the top-seeded Lyons' 2-0 victory over number four MIT on Saturday, Hough's 65th-minute marker put Wheaton up by two and created some separation between the teams. She also tallied the game-winner on Sunday during a 5-0 victory against number three Babson, sending home a sixth-minute tally before assisting Wheaton's fourth goal in the 62nd minute. Hough leads the Lyons with 11 assists and is second on the team in each goals, points and game-winning markers.
