Emory Notes
Emory University’s Lee Bachouros was named the Defensive
Athlete of the Week for the University Athletic Association (UAA),
based on her performance during Emory’s two games last
weekend… The Eagles have allowed two shots on goal or less
in three of seven games this season… Emory is yet to allow
more than one goal in a game this season… Eight different
Eagles have scored at least one goal for the team this season, and
five different Eagles have scored at least one game-winning
goal.
