GREENSBORO, N.C. (theACC.com) – Boston College's Sarah Johnson has been named the Atlantic Coast Conference Field Hockey Offensive Player of the Week, while North Carolina's Meredith Sholder claimed ACC Defensive Player of the Week honors.
Johnson had a hand in three of the Eagles' five goals over the weekend. The Oxford, Pennsylvania, native assisted on the first goal less than nine minutes into Friday's ACC opener against No. 9 Virginia, giving No. 21 Boston College an early lead it would not relinquish in an eventual 2-1 upset of the Cavaliers. Johnson came back with a goal and an assist in Sunday's 3-2 win over visiting Monmouth.
