Scoring the goals for the Rock were sophomore Caitlin O'Brien and juniors Brooke Scholl and Lara Winter.

Rock junior garners PSAC honor
SRU junior first basemen Dan Hudeck was named Monday as the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Western Division Player of the Week.
Hudeck had a batting average of .500 (15-30) during the week with 12 RBI's, four doubles and three home runs to lead SRU to six wins in eight games.
In conference action alone against Clarion and Indiana of Pa., Hudeck hit .545 with seven runs scored and 11 RBI's.
Those offensive numbers at the plate was a key component for the Rock going 5-1 in the division.
In addition, he provided the game-winning hits in three games, including a walk-off home run against IUP and a grand slam against Clarion.
Hudeck's hot bat helped keeep the Rock in contention for the PSAC West title as SRU is now 11-5 in division played and tied with California for second place, one game behind Shippensburg.
The Rock and Shippensburg will meet in a four-game series this weekend. SRU and Cal split four games earlier in the season.
