NOTRE DAME, Ind. — Junior goaltender Bridget Deehan has been named the ACC’s Defensive Player of the Week, the conference announced on Tuesday afternoon (Feb. 18).
Deehan anchored a stellar Irish defensive effort with a career-high 12 saves and four ground balls in last Friday’s 17-15 road win over third-ranked Northwestern.
Deehan followed that performance with a pair of saves in Sunday’s 24-4 victory over Central Michigan to improve to 3-0 on the season.
In her first three outings of 2020, Deehan has totaled 22 saves with a .524 save percentage and 7.23 goals-against average to go with eight ground balls.
