Already one of the most prolific freshman scorers in the country, van de Ven’s claims her third NEC Rookie of the Week award of the season after leading Quinnipiac to a pair of 2-1 wins over Monmouth and Mount St. Mary’s last week. van de Ven assisted on all four Bobcat goals, including the golden goal with just over five minutes remaining in the second overtime against the Mount. On that play, the Heesch, Holland product gained possession of the ball in front of the net and fed Kathryn Cellino, who rifled in the winning shot for the Bobcats’ fourth straight victory. van de Ven now leads the NEC in points (29), goals (10) and assists (nine). In the latest NCAA statistics report, she ranked 27th in points per game and 30th in goals scored per contest. Among freshman, she is sixth nationally in points per game and ninth in goals per game.
