Complete Patriot League Release
BETHLEHEM, Pa. - A pair of Lehigh women's lacrosse seniors earned Patriot League weekly awards on Monday as Allison LaBeau was named Attacker of the Week and Julianne D'Orazio garnered Midfielder of the Week. LaBeau posted 12 points over two games to eclipse 200 in her career, while D'Orazio posted her second and third straight hat tricks for her second straight Midfielder of the Week award.
This marks LaBeau's fourth-career Patriot League Attacker of the Week honor after garnering the award three times last year. She also was named Offensive Player of the Week as a sophomore and Rookie of the Week as a freshman.
LaBeau finished last week with five goals and seven assists, eclipsing 200 career points in the process (currently 204). She began with three goals and two assists against a strong Columbia team on Wednesday. LaBeau also had two groundballs, a caused turnover and two draw controls, one of which was the draw control that set up D'Orazio's game-winning goal with 1:40 left in overtime. LaBeau's three goals marked her third hat trick of the season. She went on to post a season-high seven points in a Patriot League win at American Saturday, recording two goals and a career-high five assists to become just the fifth player in school history to reach 200 career points. LaBeau has recorded three or more points in all nine games this season and is up to a team-leading 38 points on the year (18 goals, 20 assists).
D'Orazio, the reigning Patriot League Midfielder of the Week continued to make strong contributions at both ends of the field. Offensively, she recorded her second and third straight hat tricks, and fourth and fifth of her career. D'Orazio began against Columbia team on Wednesday by posting three goals, five groundballs, three caused turnovers and two draw controls. No goal was bigger than her game-winner with 1:40 remaining in overtime as she took a feed from sophomore Courtney Henig and sent Lehigh home winners. D'Orazio's second goal of the game gave Lehigh a 10-9 lead with 3:32 left in regulation. She went on to score three more goals in a league win at American Saturday while adding a team-leading four draw controls, three groundballs and a caused turnover. For the season, D'Orazio owns 14 goals, four assists, 28 groundballs, 21 caused turnovers (leading the team and among the best in the nation) and 20 draw controls.
LaBeau, D'Orazio and the Mountain Hawks return home on Wednesday to host Navy in a Patriot League showdown. Opening draw is set for 7 p.m.
