Redshirt junior forward totaled four points last week
NEW YORK – Xavier women's soccer redshirt junior Samantha Dewey added four points to her team-high point total last week, earning a spot on the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll, the conference office announced on Monday.
In Xavier's come-from-behind road win at Providence, Dewey finished with three points after scoring Xavier's first half goal to draw even with the Friars going into the break. Dewey also collected a point on an assist on Sydney Schembri's golden goal in the second overtime.
Against Villanova, Dewey earned her fourth assist of the season after setting up Sabrina Kunimoto's goal by pressuring the VU goalkeeper into a turnover in the box.
Dewey's four assist are tied for second most in the BIG EAST, her five goals are tied for seventh most in the conference, and her 14 points are fifth most in the BIG EAST.
