BOSTON, Mass. – UMass Lowell field hockey freshman midfielder Karlijn Kerkhof (Rotterdam, Netherlands) has been tabbed the first America East Rookie of the Week for 2024 after a strong first week of action.
 
Kerkhof made a great first impression during opening weekend for the River Hawks, totaling two goals and one assist for five points in a 1-1 week. She picked up her first collegiate point with a helper on the team’s first goal of the 2024 season before following with a goal on a direct corner to help propel UMass Lowell to a 6-0 win against Merrimack in the opener on August 30. Kerkhof then registered her squad’s lone goal in a hard-fought contest at No. 5 Duke on September 1.
 
For her efforts, Kerkhof has also been named River Hawk of the Week. The "River Hawk of the Week" is chosen in voting by the UMass Lowell Athletic Communications staff. It honors the top athlete, male or female, based on performance during the previous week of competition.
 
Kerkhof and the River Hawks are back in action on Friday, Sept. 6 when they visit Brown for a 2 p.m. matchup.
