FRESNO, Calif. - The Fresno State lacrosse team earned a pair of Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Player of the Week honors following its game at Cal on Sunday. Freshman Logann Eldredge earned her fourth career MPSF Rookie of the Week award, and senior Megan Walaitis was named the conference Offensive Player of the Week for the first time in her career.
Â
Walaitis tied for the team high with three goals at Cal on Sunday, scoring her fourth hat trick of the season. Walaitis totaled five points with three goals and two assists against the Golden Bears. Her two assists on Sunday tie for the most in a game for the senior this season, and her five points were the second most in a game this season. She scored her three goals on four shots, three on goal. She also added a caused turnover while not turning the ball over herself.
Â
Eldredge earned her second consecutive Rookie of the Week honor on Monday. The freshman attacker continued her scoring run of scoring at least once in four-straight games with one goal at Cal. She scored her lone goal on just two shots in the game. Eldredge also had the first caused turnover of her career on Sunday. She also won one draw control.
Â
The Bulldogs are back in action on Wednesday, hosting No. 16 Stanford at the Soccer and Lacrosse Stadium. Stanford is the second ranked opponent that the Bulldogs face this season. Opening draw is scheduled for 3 p.m. PT.
