STANFORD, Calif.- Fresh off a weekend sweep that included a 3-2 statement victory over No. 12 California, Stanford swept this week's NorPac West Division Player of the Week awards.

Becky Dru was named the Offensive Player of the Week, scoring two goals on penalty corners in a two-minute span during Stanford's 3-2 victory over California. Dru led all players with six shots in that game. Two days later in a 3-1 win over UC Davis, Dru added an assist and two shot attempts. For the week, she totaled five points and eight shots.

Kelsey Lloyd was honored as the Defensive Player of the Week. Lloyd scored her first goal of the year in the triumph over California, giving Stanford a 1-0 lead two minutes into the contest. She played exceptional defense in the win over UC Davis as well, helping the Cardinal keep the Aggies in check.

Alex McCawley earned Rookie of the Week honors. Against California, McCawley attempted only one shot but created multiple attacking opportunities in the midfield during the game and bottled up Cal freshman standout Lara Kruggel. She also attempted two shots in the win over UC Davis.
