NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Another weekly accolades comes in for Molly Bukiewicz, as the Tennessee Sports Writers Association announced her as the women's soccer player of the week Tuesday evening.
The graduate student earns her second career weekly honor, both of which have come on Tuesday. Earlier Tuesday morning, the South Atlantic Conference named her women's soccer offensive player of the week. This honor from the TSWA is Carson-Newman's first honor from the organization since Sydnee Duncan was recognized on September 20, 2022.
Bukiewicz has been stellar during Carson-Newman's three-game winning streak. She has scored in each of the three wins, including twice against King this past Wednesday and once versus Trevecca Nazarene to cap a three-goal week. She posted career-high marks in goals (2) and points (5) after tallying an assist against King as well.
She is the first Eagle to score in three straight games since Magda Mosengo scored in three straight games during postseason play in 2018. The superb scoring has come on limited attempts. She has needed just five shots on goal to score four times. The graduate student's four goals this season are tied for the most in the SAC and rank sixth nationally.
Bukiewicz and the Eagles are back on the field tomorrow evening versus nationally ranked Catawba. First touch is scheduled for 5:00 p.m. First touch is scheduled for 5:00 p.m. Coverage on the Eagle Sports Network is available with a subscription to FloSports at cneagles.com/floWsoc.
