PROVIDENCE, R.I. - - University of Louisville senior Nicole Youman earned the 2010 season's first BIG EAST Field Hockey Player of the Week honor on Aug. 30.
Youman, a midfielder from Black Mountain, Australia, tied a school record with five goals and 12 points in the Cards' 9-0 win over Central Michigan. Her performance tied former Cardinal great Jessica Javelet's mark for single game goals and points which was set Sept. 4, 2005 against LaSalle. Youman is now tied for second on the school's list for career assists (35) and needs three more to tie for first.
No. 13 U of L (1-1) will go back on the road to face No. 12 James Madison Saturday at noon and American University Sunday at 11:30 a.m.
