St. John Fisher College’s Samantha Barton of the women’s lacrosse team has been named as the College’s Female Athlete of the Week for the week ending March 24, 2013.
Barton led the nationally-ranked Cardinals to a 12-8 win over visting SUNY Oneonta on Saturday.
The sophomore scored a career-high four goals and led Fisher on the day with five draw controls.
Her first goal of the day, just over six minutes into the contest, gave her team a 2-1 lead and the Cardinals never trailed again.
Oneonta, who was coming off an impressive win over No. 11 Hamilton College, fell to 4-2 with the loss, while Fisher, ranked 19th nationally, improved to 5-2 with the win.
