ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa. --- Elizabethtown College freshman Liz Fretz (Parkerford, PA/Owen J. Roberts) has been named the Middle Atlantic Conference women's lacrosse Player of the Week for the week ending March 24. She is the first Blue Jay women's lacrosse player ever to receive the honor.

In last Tuesday's 13-8 loss to Villa Julie, Fretz scored two goals and assisted another. For the week, she totaled seven goals and one assist in two games, making her involved in eight of Etown's 21 goals last week.
