LONG BEACH, Calif. – Two strong performances from freshman Brooklyn Antonucci earned the defender a pair of Big West weekly awards, winning Big West Defensive Player of the Week and Freshman of the Week.
Antonucci was impactful on both ends for Long Beach State over the weekend as the Beach grabbed a pair of victories. Opening the week at home against No. 22 Harvard, Antonucci played a role in both the first and third goals against the Crimson.
The freshman assisted the first goal for Long Beach State as well as the last, an 88th minute winner from Elysia Laramie that put the Beach on top 3-2.
Playing all 180 minutes on the weekend, Antonucci then played a key defensive role in the program's second straight road shutout in a 1-0 win on the road at Fresno State.
Long Beach State has now had a Big West weekly award winner in each week of the season. Laramie was the Big West and National Offensive Player of the Week in week one, while Kassandra Ceja was last week's Big West Offensive Player of the Week.
