UMass Lowell Athletics

UMass Lowell field hockey senior forward Jenna Freitas (Manchester, N.H.) has been named River Hawk of the Week.
 
Freitas appeared in both contests for UMass Lowell last week, helping the team pick up a pair of wins against Dartmouth and Holy Cross to improve to 4-0 in 2015. In the River Hawks’ most recent outing, a 2-1 win on September 6 against Holy Cross, the forward logged her first points of the season with two goals. With that performance, Freitas tied a single-game career high originally set during her freshman year.
 
The "River Hawk of the Week" is chosen each week 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.
 
UMass Lowell returns to action on Friday, Sept. 11 when the squad kicks off a four-game road swing at Massachusetts. The contest for the annual Kennedy Cup is slated to begin at 4 p.m.
