Boade Selected PNC Achievers Student-Athlete of the Week
DURHAM -- Graduate student Tess Boade has been named Duke's PNC Achievers Student-Athlete of the Week after contributing to the game-winning goal in both of Duke's wins over ranked opponents last week.
In Thursday night's tilt against No. 15 Notre Dame, Boade assisted on freshman Michelle Cooper's goal just 50 seconds into overtime that lifted the Blue Devils to a 1-0 win. The Highlands Ranch, Colo., native received the ball at midfield and sent a perfect through pass behind the Fighting Irish defense that Cooper was able to catch up to before dribbling around a charging goalkeeper and scoring.
