RICHMOND, Va. (Oct. 24, 2022) – The Colonial Athletic Association has announced its weekly field hockey honors following the second to last week of the 2022 regular season. Delaware junior midfielder Berber Bakermans and Monmouth graduate forward Annick van Lange shared CAA Co-Player of the Week honors after six-point weekends. In addition, Delaware’s Izzy Rothwell was named CAA Rookie of the Week.
CO-PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Berber Bakermans, Delaware
Junior | Midfield | Best, Netherlands / Heerbeeck College
Bakermans tallied six points on one goal and four assists in a 2-0 week for Delaware as the Blue Hens clinched a spot in the CAA Tournament and at least a share of the regular season title. On Friday, Bakermans recorded three points, scoring one goal and assisting on the game-tying goal in Delaware’s 3-2 shootout victory over Northeastern. She followed the performance with a career-high three assists in a 6-4 win over Hofstra on Sunday.
CO-PLAYER OF THE WEEK
Annick van Lange, Monmouth
Graduate | Forward | Sint-Job, Belgium / Annuntia Institute
van Lange recorded her third hat trick of the season to help Monmouth secure a berth in the CAA Tournament with a 4-0 win over Towson. The graduate forward opened the scoring in the third quarter, after a scoreless first half, before scoring two of the Hawk's three fourth-quarter goals. It is the second consecutive hat trick for van Lange, who has all three hat tricks in the conference this season. She has scored in eight of her last nine contests and leads the CAA in points (42) and goals (19) this fall.
ROOKIE OF THE WEEK
Izzy Rothwell, Delaware
Freshman | Back / Midfield | Sparks, Md. / The Bryn Mawr School
Rothwell accounted for three points, recording her first career goal and first career assist for the Blue Hens over the weekend. All three points came in the weekend finale as Rothwell recorded an assist on the game's opening goal before scoring in the 18th minute against Hofstra. The Blue Hens built a 3-2 advantage at the break before winning the contest 6-4.
