DURHAM, N.C. – A day after receiving ACC Defensive Player of the Week recognition, sophomore defender Callie Humphrey was tabbed the Intercollegiate Women’s Lacrosse Coaches Association (IWLCA) National Defensive Player of the Week Wednesday.
Humphrey’s accolade was featured on “IWLCA Weekly, presented by ILWomen” Wednesday evening.
A product of Summit, N.J., and a two-year starter on defense, Humphrey was integral to a stifling defensive effort in Saturday’s 17-10 defeat of No. 11 Syracuse in the Carrier Dome. The defensive unit limited the Orange to just the 10 tallies, including only four in the second half.
