Offensive Player of the Week
Delaney Caldwell, Ball State, Forward
Junior, Chelsea, Mich. (Saline)
 
Caldwell scored the game-winning goal in Thursday's 2-1 win at Austin Peay before scoring the game-winner again on Sunday against Queens. 
 
The junior forward increased her team-leading total to five goals in the fourth minute on Sunday and assisted on the team's next three scores to provide Ball State with a 4-0 lead, and the Cardinals would cruise to a 7-1 decision over the visiting Royals. 
 
Caldwell entered the weekend tied for third in the MAC in both goals and points.
 
Defensive Player of the Week
Celeste Sloma, Ohio, Goalkeeper
Junior, Columbus, Ohio (Worthington Kilbourne)
 
Sloma started in goal and played all 90 minutes in Ohio’s 2-0 victory over Marshall last week. Sloma made five saves for her second-straight shutout and her third of the season.
 
Defensive Player of the Week
Maya Galko, Buffalo, Defender
Sophomore, Ottawa, Ontario (NDC Ontario)
 
2023 All-Freshman Team selection Maya Galko is continuing to make an impact for Buffalo as she anchored the UB backline to two straight shutouts and a perfect 2-0 record last week. 
 
She was also a major factor on set pieces, including scoring the game-winning goal in the 74th minute in UB's win over Canisius on Wednesday. 
 
The Ottawa, Ontario native now has three points early in the season, good for second-best on the team.
