KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Fort Hays State junior forward Thalya Dwyer was named the MIAA Women’s Soccer Offensive Athlete of the Week on Tuesday (Sept. 13) for her efforts in Fort Hays State’s win over Northwestern Oklahoma State this past Sunday.
Dwyer became the first player in FHSU women’s soccer program history to record a hat trick in a 9-0 win over Northwestern Oklahoma State. She scored all three of her goals within a span of six minutes, between the 67:12 and 73:04 marks of the match. Her third goal pushed the lead to 7-0, which broke the program’s single-game record for goals in a game as a team. She added an assist earlier in the game, giving her seven points for the match, also a new single-game FHSU record.
Dwyer joins Jordan Woodruff of Northeastern State (Goalkeeper of the Week) and Michele Keleher of Washburn (Defender of the Week) as the weekly honorees from the MIAA.
