North Carolina junior midfielder Marie McCool (Moorestown-NJ) has been named the Epoch/US Lacrosse Player of the Week and the ACC Women’s Lacrosse Offensive Player of the Week.
McCool scored a career-high seven goals and tied her career high with eight points in Carolina’s 15-11 win at No. 20 Louisville on Saturday afternoon. She scored three consecutive goals to close the first half after the Cardinals had built their biggest lead of the game, 7-3. The Tar Heels then opened the second half scoring seven of the first eight goals, led by three in a row from McCool, to take control of the game and eventually earn the win.
