Senior Arielle Schneider (Plainview, NY/Plainview-Old Bethpage) anchored the defense and tallied an assist for The College at Brockport women’s soccer team, which earned two huge shutouts in must-win conference games.
The Golden Eagles defeated Potsdam and Plattsburgh on the road to jump up to the sixth and final spot in the State University of New York Athletic Conference playoffs.
As the sweeper and leader of the defensive effort, Schneider has been named Brockport’s Female Athlete of the Week.
Against Potsdam, the Brockport defense only allowed three shots en route to a 2-0 win. At Plattsburgh, Brockport was out-shot 19-4, but the Golden Eagles only allowed five shots on goal in their second straight shutout.
Schneider assisted the game-winning goal in the 12th minute in a 1-0 win, as the Golden Eagles passed the Cardinals for the final playoff spot.
