CHASE MURPHY OF COLORADO COLLEGE, a sophomore goaltender from Cohasset, Maine, has been selected the SCAC Men’s Lacrosse Defensive Player-of-the-Week for games played from Monday, February 24th through Sunday, March 2nd.

Murphy posted a 1-1 record during Colorado College’s two contests last week at the Patriot Games in Dallas. 

During Friday’s 16-4 SCAC victory Southwestern, Murphy stopped the only shot he faced while playing the first 30 minutes. It marked the third time in less than two full seasons he did not allow a goal in a game. 

In Sunday’s 11-3 loss to No. 13 Roanoke, he made 15 saves on 26 shots. It marked the eighth time in his career that he has made double-digit saves.
