PITTSFORD, N.Y. – Bre Socker of the St. John Fisher College field hockey team continues to gather honors from her stellar play last week. The National Field Hockey Coaches Association recognized the junior as its Division III Offensive Player of the Week on Wednesday. Socker is the first offensive player in program history to earn a National Player of the Week award. 
 
Socker, who was named Empire 8 Offensive Player of the Week on Monday, scored nine goals over the Cardinals' four games on the week that included four-goal performances in the 6-1 win at Houghton on Monday, October 14th as well as at Sage in Friday's 10-0 win over the Gators. The Liverpool native also added a tally versus Brockport on Wednesday, October 16th and was part of spirited effort Fisher put on at No. 1 Middlebury on Sunday as the Cardinals came up short against the defending National Champions by a score of 2-1.
 
The forward was on a tear in Fisher's four-game winning streak leading up to the matchup with Middlebury. Along with her nine goals last week, the junior recorded a hat trick at Oneonta on Friday, October 11th. The four goals against Houghton were a new career-high in a single game for Socker. When she matched it versus Sage, the Liverpool native became only the second player in program history to have multiple four-goal games. 
 
Along with leading the E8 in goals (22) and points (47) by wide margins, Socker ranks third in the country in goals per game with an average of 1.47. The junior will look to build upon it when the Cardinals visit Elmira at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday.
