9/16/2024 12:00:00 AM



More outstanding play from Goldey-Beacom saw freshman Gaby Fernandez (Arecibo, PR) named Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference Volleyball Defensive Player of the Week, senior Caitlyn Burch (Mechanicsville, MD) picked to the sport's Weekly Honor Roll and freshman Ogün Ünal (Frankfurt, Germany) named to the Men's Soccer Weekly Honor Roll.
 
Fernandez recorded 62 digs over three matches.  She had 24 each Tuesday against West Chester and Friday at Bowie State before getting 14 on Saturday at Lincoln (PA).  Friday saw a 3-1 GBC victory and Saturday witnessed a 3-0 triumph.
 
Burch, last week's CACC Player of the Week, had 42 kills, a .326 hitting percentage, five digs, an ace and a block over three matches.  She had 19 kills Friday at Bowie State to go with a .421 hitting percentage.  She also had 13 kills Tuesday vs. West Chester and 10 on Saturday at Lincoln (PA).
 
The Lightning (3-3) have won three of their last five matches and are on a surge under first-year coach Alexa Poss.  GBC opens CACC play Wednesday at home against Holy Family, beginning at 7:00 pm.
 
Unal had a goal and an assist on the week.  Both came in Goldey-Beacom's 4-1 victory Saturday over Pitt-Johnstown.
 
GBC looks to continue its strong play after making the CACC Tournament a season ago.  The squad on Wednesday hosts Daemen at 4:00 pm.
