Keckeisen becomes the first two-time winner of the NEC Rookie of the Week award this season after helping lead the Bulldogs to an 11-10 win over Sacred Heart on Friday and an 11-9 triumph over first place Quinnipiac on Sunday. The victories pushed Bryant’s league record to 4-2 on the year. She scored five goals on the week, including her fourth hat trick of the season in the win over the Bobcats on Sunday. With the Bulldogs trailing, 7-5, with under 18 minutes to play, Keckeisen netted a pair of unassisted goals in a 42 second span to knot the game at 7-7. She helped extend Bryant’s lead to 10-7 with her third goal of the contest at the 4:05 mark of the second half. Keckeisen, who hails from Danbury, CT, also scored twice against Sacred Heart with both tallies coming in the opening stanza as the Bulldogs built an 8-3 lead by intermission, then held off the Pioneers in the second half. On the year, Keckeisen leads Bryant with 22 goals and ranks second on the club with 22 points.
