MAC Commonwealth Defensive Player of the Week
Brent Blackmon (York / Gr., D / Henrico, Va.) led No. 15 York with a pair of caused turnovers in York’s victory over No. 7 Washington and Lee on Saturday which both led directly to York goals. The fifth-year senior checked the ball loose out of the stick of a hot-handed Hillis Burns (4g 3a) with 5:39 left in the fourth quarter which then led to a Spartan tally on the other end to give the Green and White a crucial two-goal advantage. The play by Blackmon sparked the turning point as the Spartans went on to post back-to-back defensive stops and salt away enough time to eliminate the chances of a late W&L comeback.
