Moore Named ECAC Player of the Week

CENTERVILLE, Mass. – Senior forward Olivia Moore (Salem, Conn.) of the Wentworth Institute of Technology women's soccer team has been named the Corvias ECAC Women's Soccer Player of the Week for the week ending November 2.

Moore, who was named Commonwealth Coast Conference Offensive Player of the Week, posted a four-goal week for the Leopards. In a 4-0 win over Nichols in the regular-season finale, she scored a goal and followed that up with a hat trick in a 4-2 upset win over Endicott in the CCC Quarterfinals, marking the first time the Leopards had won at Endicott in 13 tries. Moore scored in the ninth minute to give Wentworth a 1-0 lead, gave the Leopards the lead for good in the 54th minute, and added an insurance marker in the 17th minute of action.

In addition to her performance last week, Moore played a pivotal role in Wentworth's 1-1 tie at Eastern Nazarene today in the CCC semifinals. Her penalty kick in the bottom of the fifth round gave the Leopards a 5-4 edge and advanced them to their first conference title game appearance since 2003.

Starting 14 of the 16 games in which she has played this season, Moore has seven goals and three assists for 17 points, which ranks her third on the team. For her career, she is Wentworth's second all-time leading scorer with 85 points (35 goals, 15 assists).

Seventh-seeded Wentworth (9-8-3) will travel to top-seeded Roger Williams (17-2-3) for the CCC championship on Saturday at a time to be announced.
