The South Atlantic Conference Announces AstroTurf SAC Women’s Soccer Player of the Week, Oct. 19

ROCK HILL, S.C. (TheSAC.com) – Carson-Newman forward Julianne Herrity has been named the AstroTurf South Atlantic Conference Women's Soccer Player of the Week for games played Oct. 12-18, the League announced today.

Herrity, a junior from Donegal, Ireland, had a big week as she helped Carson-Newman to a 2-0 week that included a big victory over then No. 9 Wingate. At Young Harris on Oct. 14, Herrity scored both of Carson-Newman's goals including the double overtime winner.  Her first goal came unassisted in the first half, and the game-winner was launched into the top left corner of the net at the 102nd minute. Three days later, in a match-up between the SAC's top two teams, the junior forward scored the lone goal against Wingate off an assist from Varin Ness, bringing her total goals to ten on the season. The award marks her second Player of the Week plaudit this season.
