GREENSBORO, N.C. – The top offensive player in North Carolina field hockey history has been named Atlantic Coast Conference Field Hockey Offensive Player of the Week. Senior forward Erin Matson, who on Sunday became UNC's career leader in points and goals, has won the first conference weekly honor of the 2021 season.
Louisville's Julie Kouijzer earned Defensive Player of the Week honors.
Matson, from Chadds Ford, Pa., opened a record-setting weekend by assisting on two goals in the Tar Heels' 4-1 road win at No. 13 Princeton on Friday. On Sunday, still playing in Princeton, she scored four goals and added two assists to total 10 points in UNC's 9-1 win over Penn.
