Bloom earns ECAC Player of the Week

SMITHFIELD, R.I. – Having already been named the Northeast Conference Player of the Week, senior attack Haley Bloom (Hauppauge, N.Y.) adds another accolade to the list this week, named the ECAC Player of the Week for the New England region.

Bloom led the Bulldogs to a 2-0 weekend as they completed an undefeated 7-0 conference season, scoring 11 points in wins over LIU Brooklyn and Sacred Heart. Bloom scored eight goals and added three assists in guiding the Black and Gold to their first-ever outright NEC Regular-Season title, as the Bulldogs will host this weekend's NEC Tournament for the first time in program history.

Bloom scored a hat trick and added three assists to tie a career-high with six points in a 16-9 win at LIU Brooklyn Friday afternoon and finished off the regular-season with a career-high five-goal outing against Sacred Heart Sunday. The senior scored the game winner against the Blackbirds and added one ground ball and two draw controls on the week.
