Weber, McGovern named Navigant Athletes of the Week

SMITHFIELD, R.I. – Bryant University women’s lacrosse sophomore Alexa Weber (South Windsor, Conn.) and men’s lacrosse redshirt freshman Logan McGovern (Darien, Conn.) are this week’s Navigant Credit Union Athletes of the Week.

Weber snapped Bryant’s all-time single-game scoring record when she poured out nine in the 16-10 victory at UMass Lowell. The sophomore surpassed Jess Demeo ’19 and Allison Faiola ’10 in the record book and now sits at second all-time with Shaun Leddy ’07 and Faiola with 10 points with an added assist. Weber also tallied career-highs as she led the team with four groundballs and tied her career-best with two caused turnovers. She also added a career-high of four draw controls.

McGovern tied Bryant’s freshman single-game record for points with eight in Saturday’s 16-5 win at Manhattan. The attackman from Connecticut scored five goals and added three assists, matching the eight-point showing by Marc O’Rourke in 2018 against Mount St. Mary’s. McGovern is the fifth player in Bryant’s Division I history with a game of eight or more points, joining Tucker James – who achieved the feat four times – O’Rourke, Zack Greer and Peter McMahon.
