BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - The Collegiate Water Polo Association announced Friday that Indiana sophomore goalkeeper, Jessica Goldner, has been named the CWPA Southern Division Player of the Week.
Goldner's award is the third consecutive Hoosier water polo honor in as many weeks. Kristin Stanford was given the award the previous two weeks.
In what was her most successful weekend in her young Hoosier career, Goldner recorded an impressive .729 save percentage on 35-of-48 shots-on-goal, and helped the Hoosiers to a 4-0 mark this past weekend at the Princeton Invitational.
Against Bucknell, the Los Altos Hills, Calif., native stopped 6-of-9 shots, while following with a 10-of-13 performance against No. 18 Brown. Goldner was pulled late in the fourth quarter against No. 19 Harvard, but not before recording a perfect 13-of-13 save total. The Hoosier sophomore ended the tournament with a 6-of-13 save performance in the Hoosiers' thrilling victory over No. 10 UC-Santa Barbara.
Also on the weekend, Goldner surpassed the 200-career save mark, and ended the Princeton Invitational with her current career total of 234.
Goldner and the Hoosiers will be back in the pool Mar. 1-2, when IU hosts Hartwick in the annual Indiana Invitational. IU and Hartwick will play at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, Mar. 1, and at 11:00 a.m. on Sunday.
