RICHMOND, Va. – The University of Delaware women's soccer goalkeeper Kyla Burns was awarded the Coastal Athletic Association's co-defensive player of the week, the league announced on Monday.
Burns had another fantastic weekend between the pipes for the Blue Hens. She had 13 saves, and allowed one goal to help Delaware secure four points this weekend.
In last Thursday's contest against Elon, Burns had seven saves and a shutout leading to a 1-0 victory for the Blue Hens. After giving up an early goal against Campbell on Sunday, Burns had six consecutive saves to help the Blue Hens secure a point in a 1-1 draw.
Burns is the first Blue Hen this season to earn a conference player of the week honor, and is the first Blue Hen since Katie Hackley earned the honor back on Oct. 3, 2022. She is also the first Blue Hen to earn conference defensive player of the week since Kamryn Stablein earned it back on Aug. 26, 2019.
The Blue Hens are on the road this weekend and take on Hofstra on Sunday, Oct. 15 at 1 p.m.
