RICHMOND — After posting impressive performances in the William & Mary (W&M) lacrosse team’s contests against No. 6 Duke and Richmond, freshman Ainsley Huizenga has been selected as the Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) Rookie of the Week.

The honor marks the second consecutive week in which a W&M standout has garnered the distinction, as Serena Jacobs earned the accolade following the Tribe’s season-opening victory at Villanova.

In addition to scoring her first career goal versus Duke, Huizenga totaled a team-high four draw controls with a ground ball.

Additionally, she posted a caused turnover and a ground ball at Richmond.
