Bruins Sweep Weekly MPSF Awards
LOS ANGELES -- Redshirt junior attacker Emma Lineback was named the MPSF/Delfina Player of the Week and freshman attacker Jojo Walters was named the MPSF/S&R Sport Newcomer of the Week as announced by the league office today.
Lineback (Laguna Beach, Calif.) scored in every quarter, finishing with a career-high-tying five goals on six shots to lead the No. 4 Bruins to an impressive 24-11 win over No. 6 Fresno State (Mar. 1). She added an assist for a game-high-tying six points, picked up one steal, and won her only sprint of the game.
This is the second career MPSF weekly award for Lineback, and first as player of the week.
Others Nominated: Jenna Flynn (Stan), Tilly Kearns (USC), and Darcy Spark (SJSU).
Walters (Dallas, Texas) scored multiple goals in a game for just the second time in her young career, netting two scores on three shots to help the Bruins snap a two-game losing streak and remain undefeated against the Bulldogs (9-0) in the series history in UCLA's home opener. She scored on a power play in the first period and on a strike from the front court in the second period against the Bulldogs.
This is the first career MPSF weekly award for Walters.
Others Nominated: Bridget Cranley (SJSU); and Emily Ausmus (USC).
