Luci Kanowski, A
COLUMBUS, Ohio – Capital University Women's Lacrosse posted a big week in the form of a pair of wins, but now two of its student-athletes are being recognized for standout performances int hose victories.
Luci Kanowsky and
Alex Lowry helped Cap sweep the OAC Women's Lacrosse weekly awards, announced on Monday afternoon by the conference office.
Junior attacker
Luci Kanowsky (Bexley, Ohio/Bishop Hartley) earned OAC Offensive Player of the Week honors following a 15-point week. Kanowsky has been an offensive force all season long and ripped 13 goals in a pair of wins last week. She scored five goals and put 10 of her 12 shots on frame against Ohio Northern and then followed that performance with a 10-point day against Baldwin Wallace. Kanowsky tallied eight goals and two assists against the Yellow Jackets to help spring a second-half offensive outburst and lead to a 22-10 victory. She also added two caused turnovers in each contest.
Senior midfielder
Alex Lowry (Lewis Center, Ohio / Olentangy Orange) continued her quiet yet stellar season with a total of 20 draw controls, four caused turnovers, and four ground balls in wins over ONU and BW last week. Lowry was part of a defense that allowed just nine goals to be scored and collected 12 draw controls along the way. In Saturday's victory over Baldwin Wallace, Lowry aided it Cap's effort to limit the Yellow Jackets to just two goals in the second half, allowing for the breakaway win. She posted three caused turnovers, four ground balls and eight draw controls in that game. For this, she was named OAC Defensive Player of the Week.
