Lees-McRae’s Sullivan Named Women’s Soccer Player of the Week
High Point, N.C.> Lees-McRae College’s MaryBeth
Sullivan has been selected as the NCAA Division II Conference
Carolinas women’s soccer Player of the Week during week
number seven in the 2011 season. MaryBeth Sullivan led the Bobcats
to a pair of 1-0 victories over two of the top teams in the
conference and the region last week, scoring the match-winner in
each contest. The sophomore forward opened the week with a
brilliant strike on Wednesday, netting the winner against Belmont
Abbey early in the first half. Sullivan then delivered the deciding
strike on Saturday against Mount Olive, taking a touch-pass from
Emily Jones following a cross from her sister, LeeAnn Sullivan
before sending a driving strike into the top corner for the
eventual winner. The 5-7 attacker from Greensboro, NC currently
leads the Bobcats with 10 goals, 22 points, and four
match-winners. The Bobcats currently are 9-0 in league play
and 10-2-1 overall.
