2017 Week 11 Wrap
With this week seeing some conferences starting tournaments and others still in regular season play, a number of exciting scenarios played out across the country, whilst one legend’s career finished on a high with a two-goal effort in her swansong.
2017 Week 11 Preview
Things are coming right down to the wire in the SWAC, with both Priya Gakhar and Paige Hayward right in the mix as the conference comes down to its final matchday. The undoubted match of the week is also the match of the regular season as Beattie Goad and Stanford travel south to face Teagan Micah and UCLA.
2017 Week 10 Preview
It’s time for what is always one of the most intriguing Aussie v Aussie games of the season – Kate Swartwout and Western Carolina v Isabel Hodgson and East Tennessee State in a local derby. However, that is far from being the only intriguing storyline of the week, with playoff pushes and title races coming right down to the wire.
2017 Week 9 Preview
As we move into the final few weeks of the regular season, teams are scrambling for position in their respective conferences, and the teams featuring Aussies are no exception. Hofstra and Murray State attempt to continue their run towards regular season titles, whilst Wyoming endeavour to move back into the title race in a tight Mountain West Conference.
2017 Week 8 Wrap
Scoring goals has been a theme throughout the season for the Australians in college this season, but this week was all about assists, as four players combined for five assists. There was one goal for Alisha Bass though, and one player set a little-known NCAA Division I all-time record.
2017 Week 7 Wrap
Harriet Withers continues her charge to becoming one of Murray State’s all-time great players, whilst Emily Hulbert returned from injury and Georgia Rowntree was an absolute saviour for Wyoming.
2017 Week 6 Wrap
In a week that was perhaps a little light on standout performances, Harriet Withers more than made up for it with a record-setting outing against Jacksonville State. The players down the back were once again on point though, with Georgia Rowntree, Monique Iannella, and Nyomi Devine enjoying solid outings.
2017 Week 4 Wrap
Two-goal performances were the order of the week among the Aussies, as Harriet Withers and Alisha Bass each notched braces to lead their teams to wins. Jemma House also picked up her first college goal, and is there a new defensive star emerging at Hofstra?
2017 Week 3 Wrap
It was certainly a great weekend for the goalkeepers, with both Teagan Micah and Georgia Rowntree pulling out exceptional performances. However, Emily Hulbert was even better in midfield for Hofstra, leading her team to a demolition of Eastern Washington. Elsewhere, we saw yet another freshman make their debut in the form of Olivia Ellis.
2017 Week 1 Wrap
It was certainly an eventful opening weekend for the Aussies in NCAA Division I. We saw a couple of players pop up unexpectedly, but certain others did exactly what we know them best for – dominating at the attacking end of the field. At the back, certain experienced players kept their opposition in check to give their teams a chance at victory.
